Abstract

In this paper I report on the recent results obtained from the Tenerife switched beam (10 GHz to 33 GHz) experiment and Jodrell Bank 5 GHz interferometer and their predictions for foreground levels. The full data analysis and results will be presented elsewhere. It is found that free-free emission dominates above 10 GHz, whereas synchrotron emission dominates below 5 GHz.
