Scientific paper

The Matsumoto et al. (1988) report of isotropic sky brightness in excess of the 2.7 K Planck spectrum, at wavelengths near 500 and 700 microns, has increased interest in the use of Antarctica as a sub-mm observing site. Extrapolations from existing data are presented which show that, using a gradient-insensitive sensitivity pattern in the 3 mm window leads to isotropy observations having beam throw of less than 1 deg at the South Pole, during Austral summer, and reaching isotropy limits lying well below 10 exp -5.
