We present maps of the 22MHz radio emission between declinations -28d and +80d, covering ~73% of the sky, derived from observations with the 22MHz radiotelescope at the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory (DRAO). The resolution of the telescopt (EWxNS) is 1.1d x 1.7d secant(zenith angle). The maps show the large scale features of the emission from the Galaxy including the thick non-thermal disk, the North Polar Spur (NPS) and absorption due to discrete HII regions and to an extended band of thermal electrons within 40d of the Galactic centre. We give the flux densities of nine extended supernova remnants shown on the maps.
