Abstract
An experiment has been developed in order to map the submillimetre Gal actic emission at four different wavelengths between 400 mu m and 2 mm at an angular scale of 1 degrees. A binocular telescope system has be en realised by means of two off-axis wobbling parabolic mirrors, each one coupled to a two-channel He-3 photometer. A first run of observati ons from Dome C is planned for the Antarctic summer 1995-96.
