A definitive spectroscopic observation of HOC(+) is reported. The region from 88,200 to 89,800 MHz was searched and four lines of HCO(+) were found, one of which is discussed here. A statistically significant Doppler shift was not measurable for this weak line, but a pressure-broadening parameter was found and it was determined that the line contained no nitrogen. Isotopic mixing showed the line to come from molecules containing one H, one C, and one O atom. The ion line was readily observed and final frequencies were measured. Principal axis coordinates were calculated for all three atoms. The microwave frequencies and gamma-sub-s structures were in essentially perfect harmony with theoretical predictions, confirming the assignment of these spectra beyond any reasonable doubt.
