Abstract
The techniques associated with the measurement of antenna temperature at microwave frequencies are discussed. A number of experiments designed to measure cosmic microwave background radiation are described and their results compared. These results give a very good fit to a 3/spl deg/K black body curve between 1.4 and 35 GHz.Keywords
