The results from the analysis of P32 scans at 100 m and 200 m across the dark cloud L1166(CB236) are presented and compared to previously analysed images from P22 raster maps of the region at the same wavelengths. It is found that the transient-corrected integrated flux densities (using P32TOOLS toolkit) of the cloud at the two wavelengths agree with those derived from the P22 maps within the errors. The dust tem- peratures derived from the two different observing modes both agree giving a temperature of 11.5K for an emissivity index (assuming ∝λ-β), β=2. Thus the P32 scans confirm that the dust is very cold indicating that the cloud is in a quiescent state and, assuming a distance of 300pc to the cloud, the estimated mass from the thermal dust emission is ~1.2 M_sun, in excellent agreement with submillimetre measurements.
