=============================================================================

Description (Summary):
    We present 8400-MHz flux densities for 1194 southern radio sources.
    The sources were selected from the Parkes 2700-MHz Survey to include
    all those stronger than 0.5 Jy at that survey's finding frequency of
    2700 MHz. The new fluxes have an accuracy of about 8 per cent.
    corresponding to 0.05 Jy for a typical source. It is anticipated that
    the data will be useful in defining the high-frequency radio spectra
    of many sources as well as in pinpointing objects with which to
    improve the southern, astrometric absolute reference frame.
