B. ; Hilldrup, K. C. ; Ratner, M. I. Abstract Observations of two sky areas, obtained with the C and D configurations of the VLA at 4.885 and 4.860 GHz in 1980, 1983, and 1984, are reported. A map is provided, and flux densities and source counts complete down to 100 microJy are presented in tables. The slope of the differential source-count law for S = 0.1-10 mJy is shown to be -1.65 + or - 0.1, and no evidence for the appearance of a new population of flat-spectrum radio sources is found.
