Scientific paper

A long series of 22-GHz daily observations (24 days) of the radio sources 3C 273, Cen A, Sgr A, and OV -236 was carried out in July 1980. None of these sources presented any short-term variability larger than the accuracy of the measurements (about 10 percent). Cen A presented the highest flux level in relation to the past seven years, and it decreased consistently during the period of observation at a rate of 0.2 plus or minus 0.02 Jy/day. The flux density of OV -236 increased in the same period at a rate of 0.1 plus or minus 0.02 Jy/day.
