An instrument capable of accurate measurement of atmospheric transparency in the FIR (4-20 per cm) is described. The possibility of obtaining quantitative information about the atmospheric water vapor profile by means of very accurate measurement of the atmospheric transparency spectrum is also discussed. A spectrum of the atmospheric transparency is reported as a preliminary result, and the problem of the excess absorption in the atmospheric windows is discussed, comparing the data with models using different power law behaviors for the continuum term. It is found that the data agree with a v squared behavior at the 50 percent confidence level.
