Abstract
The amplitude of the north-south anisotropy and its level of significance is shown to increase rapidly with increasing angular resolution ..cap omega../4..pi..; in particular the null result of the Sandage-Tammann analysis is accounted for by insufficient resolution (..cap omega../4..pi..approx. =0.4). At high resolution (..cap omega../4..pi..<0.1) the logarithmic redshift anisotropy in the range 31<..mu../sub 0/<33 approaches 0.3 (i.e., a factor of 2 in velocity ratio) at significance levels greater than 5< or =. In Appendix A the free-space or low density, asymptotic value of the Hubble constant H/sub 0/=75 km s/sup -1/ Mpc/sup -1/ is derived from sky areas (anticenter sector and polar caps) not dominated by the Local Supercluster. Some galaxies with discrepant or questionable redshifts are discussed in Appendix B. (AIP)
