We used the ESO 3.6 m telescope at La Silla (Chile) in conjunction with the Estec heterodyne receiver to observe CO (J=2-1) emission from southern sources. The telescope HPBW was 2.2 arcmin, the beam efficiency 43 per cent. The receiver used backward-wave oscillators and Schottky barrier diode mixers. It had a single-sideband noise temperature of 4000 K at 230 GHz. The backend was a 256 channel filterbank of 1 MHz (1.3 km s−1) bandwidth per channel. Calibration was done in the usual way.
