Extract

The flux densities of 220 radio sources have been accurately measured at 408 MHz in order to provide a useful set of calibration sources accessible to southern radio astronomers. The flux densities are based on a scale defined by absolute measurements. This scale appears to be 10% higher than the commonly accepted CKL scale and about 8% higher than the scale defined by Kellermann when averaged over common sources.
