  • Abstract
    Further evidence of the strong correlation between sky-noise temperature and scintillation intensity at 12.5 GHz is revealed. Predictions from an measurement derived linear regression fit are compared with CCIR predictions and show a net improvement in the accuracy of the scintillation levels. Extrapolation to 30 GHz also gives reasonably accurate intensities
