Results are reported for radio observations of the galactic thermal source G37.7 + 0.1, which were made during a recombination-line survey of H II regions with the Arecibo 1000-ft radio telescope using circularly polarized feeds at 1400 and 2371 MHz. The observations indicate double hydrogen recombination lines with a velocity separation of about 40 km/s. Attempts are made to fit the data obtained to three different models which assume: (1) an expanding shell of ionized gas with an expansion velocity of 20 km/s, (2) the chance superposition of two independent H II regions, or (3) a 'core-halo' source configuration with a typical H II region surrounded by a cool partially ionized gas. It is concluded that it is difficult to decide uniquely on a specific model and that CO molecular data would be useful in understanding the precise nature of G37.7 + 0.1.
