"408-MHz survey observations made with the Molonglo Radio Telescope have been used to prepare a catalogue of 12 141 discrete sources of listed flux density >= 0.7 Jy. The survey covers 7.85 sr of the sky defined by +18.5 (deg) >= dec(1950) >= -85.0 (deg), mod(b) >= 3 (deg). A few sources beyond the declination limits are also included. The catalogue comprises celestial coordinates with standard error typically lying between 3 and 10 arcsec and 408-MHz flux densities with standard error typically lying between 4 and 10 per cent. Galactic coordinates, notes on source morphology and cross-references to the Parkes Catalogues are included. The overall source density is 1500/sr, corresponding to 0.001 per beam area. There are 7347 sources of listed flux density >= 1.00 Jy, at which level the catalogue is substantially complete. The reliability is believed to be better than 99.9 per cent." The MRC was re-issued in 1990 with the original B1950 coordinates supplemented by J2000 values, and an additional cross-reference flag `J' added to denote (extended) sources imaged at 843-MHz by P.A. Jones. No other alterations were made to the original release. The MRC is now available on 5.25 inch, 1.2 Mbyte MS-DOS (IBM) floppy disk (0.5 inch magnetic tape is also available, but is not the preferred medium). In the floppy disk format, simple software is provided to facilitate use of the catalogue on a PC computer.
