We describe the equipment, observational method and reduction procedure of
an absolutely calibrated radio continuum survey of the South Celestial
Hemisphere at a frequency of 1420 MHz. These observations cover the
area for declinations less than
. The sensitivity is about 50 mK TB (full beam
brightness) and the angular resolution (HPBW) is
, which
matches the existing northern sky survey at the same frequency.
