A survey of the distribution of radio emission at wavelengths of 75 and 20 cm along an extensive section of the Southern Milky Way has recently been carried out by M. Komesaroff and myself using the 210-foot radio telescope at Parkes. The area surveyed ranges from lII = 280 to 355° and extends on the average to 6 degrees either side of the plane. The beamwidths of the aerial at 75 and 20 cm are 50 and 14 min arc respectively. Observations at the shorter wavelength offer a picture of this section of the Galaxy at considerably higher angular resolution than hitherto available, while the 75-cm observations are expected to make a useful contribution to our spectral information.
