Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

This paper presents the positions and fringe amplitudes of 1075 discrete radio sources at 365 MHz obtained at the University of Texas Radio Astronomy Observatory using the Bandwidth Synthesis Interferometer. The average standard deviation of the positions is about 2 arcsec in right ascension and 1.5 arcsec in declination. This paper completes the analysis of the data taken with the Texas interferometer in its original form, providing a total of 3467 position measurements of 2779 radio sources.
