2703 sources have been observed at the 1612MHz transition of OH, and 783 OH/IR stars were detected; 597 of these detections are new discoveries. The IRAS sources were detected on the basis of their IRAS fluxes at 12, 25 and 60um. The survey is 70% complete for IRAS sources in the Southern hemisphere (Dec<-10{deg}) with F(12um)>3Jy, with IR colors log(F25/F12)>-0.2 and log(F60/F12)<0.6 Note that the file catalog.dat contains all observed sources, with a flag indicating the detection or non-detection; the detected sources only are listed in the printed version of Table2, while sources without detectable 1612MHz emission are listed in Table3 (on microfiche)
