We have determined the distribution of defections due to sky temperature fluctuations at 10.6 GHz. If all the defections are due to fine structure in the cosmic microwave background, we limit these fluctuations to ΔT/T ≲ 2.5 × 10-4 on an angular scale of 11 arcmin. If, on the other hand, all the deflections are due to confusion among discrete radio sources, the areal density of these sources is calculated for various slopes of the differential source count relationship and for various cutoff flux densities. If, for example, the slope is 2.1 and the cutoff is 10 mJy, we find (0.25-3.3) 106 sources sr-1 Jy-1.
