The temperature of the cosmic background radiation (CBR) has been measured at a frequency of 3.8 GHz (7.9 cm wavelength), during two consecutive summers, obtaining a brightness temperature, T(CBR), of 2.56 + or - 0.08 K in 1987 adn 2.71 + or - 0.07 K in 1988 (68 percent confidence level). The new results are in agreement with previous measurement at 3.7 GHz obtained in 1986 and have smaller error bars. Combining measurements from all 3 years, T(CBR) = 2.64 + or - 0.07 K is obtained.
