Extract

In a current programme at the Molonglo Radio Observatory using the high-resolution pencil beam of the instrument (∼3′ arc) an attempt is being made to extend the measured spectra of known planetary nebulae down to 408 MHz. Of 23 such planetaries already investigated, 14 have been detected. The main results will be given elsewhere; here it is proposed to discuss in detail only the well-known planetary nebula IC 418.
