Description:
    We publish 1879 radial velocities of stars distributed in 105 fields
    of 4x4degres. We continue the PPO series (Fehrenbach et al.
    1987A&AS...71..263F, 1987A&AS...71..275F, 1990A&AS...83...91F and
    1992A&AS...95..541F; Duflot et al.  1990A&AS...83..251D,
    1992A&AS...94..479D, 1992A&AS...95..541F and 1995A&AS..110..177D),
    using the Fehrenbach objective prism method.
