A modified photoelectric-drift scan technique has been used to measure emission heights as well as the center-to-limb variation of some of the strongest lines in the quiet chromosphere (Ca(+) K, Mg b(1), Na D, H-alpha). The true center-to-limb variations as derived from the measurements are compared with previous results and with predictions from very recent non-LTE calculations. With few exceptions, the agreement is very satisfactory. A high-resolution computerized version of Mohler's (1960) method has been used to determine mean emission heights at the limb. The measured heights are compared with previous empirical results.
