AbstractWe present the Texas Survey of discrete radio sources between -35.5^deg^ and 71.5^deg^ declination (B 1950), which was carried out at 365 MHz with the Texas Interferometer during 1974-1983. The Survey lists accurate positions with internal errors of about an arcsecond, flux densities which for strong point sources have internal errors of about 1% and total errors of about 5%, simple structure models and indications of spectrum and variability for 66841 sources. Results of comparisons with other data are presented, and show that the Survey is 90% complete at 0.4 Jy and 80% complete at 0.25 Jy, is nearly free from spurious sources, and has a lobe-shift incidence which is reasonably described by quality flags associated with each source.
