Scientific paper

We present a catalog of radio sources discovered at a frequency of 4850 MHz in the equatorial zone (-9.5 deg less than delta less than +10.0 deg) of the Parkes-Massachusetts Inst. of Tech. (MIT)-National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) (PMN) surveys. The equatorial survey covers 1.90 sr and contains 11,774 sources to a flux limit of 40 mJy. The survey was made using the Parkes 64 m radio telescope with the (NRAO) multibeam receiver during 1990. This survey largely overlaps the 87GB survey in the declination range +1 deg to +10 deg. The data-taking and principal reduction methods used for the PMN surveys have been extensively described in previous papers. In this paper, we describe the specific details of the equatorial survey and we provide a list of sources. Later papers in the series will describe the images made from, and provide analysis of, the data.
