Ohio Radio Survey
(OSS, Ohio Sky Survey)
(1960s radio survey by Ohio State University)
The Ohio Radio Survey (aka Ohio Sky Survey or OSS) is a radio
survey from the 1960s
performed by Ohio State University
using their Ohio State University Radio Observatory
(OSURO, aka, Big Ear).
The prefixes OA, OB, etc., were coined to designate the radio sources,
but substitutes, OHIO A, OHIO B, etc., have since been adopted as
more specific. "A" indicates the original list, and
"B" through "Z" (skipping "O") all for a second list,
the letter indicating the
angular hour of right ascension: B for 1, C for 2, etc.
(survey,radio,catalog,all sky)
