Interstellar methanol lines at lambda = 2 mm, produced by the J = 3 yields 2, DELTA K=O transitions, have been observed in Ori A, Sgr A, Sgr B2 and Dr 21(OH). The Ori A source appears to be less than l' in extent, with a methanol excitation temperature of ~90 deg K and a column density of ~4x10/sup 15/ cm/sup -1/. (auth)
