We have mapped a single field with the VLA to an unprecedented rms sensitivity of 1.5 μJy. Our observations reveal that the excess μJy population (see Windhorst et al (1993), Fomalont et al. (1993)) is continuous down to 1 μJy. In addition, we measure a microwave sky temperature of ΔT/T = (1.4 ± 1.2) x 10–5, consistent with microwave decrements we discovered near the center of our map.
