Description: 2703 sources have been observed at the 1612MHz transition
of OH, and 783 OH/IR stars were detected; 597 of these detections are
new discoveries. The IRAS sources were detected on the basis of their
IRAS fluxes at 12, 25 and 60um. The survey is 70% complete for IRAS
sources in the Southern hemisphere (Dec←10°) with F(12um)>3Jy,
with IR colors log(F25/F12)>-0.2 and log(F60/F12)<0.6
Note that the file catalog.dat contains all observed sources,
with a flag indicating the detection or non-detection; the
detected sources only are listed in the printed version of Table2,
while sources without detectable 1612MHz emission are listed in
Table3 (on microfiche)

(VH and SH are set to 0)

History:
* December 1992: the electronic version of the table was e-mailed to
CDS by Hekkert te Lintel.
* April 1998: Non-measured sources without OH-Name were removed.
The documentation (this ReadMe file) was revised and completed.
