Abstract
We use data from the White Dish experiment to set limits on cosmic microwav e background radiation anisotropies in open and spatially flat-Lambda cold dark matter cosmogonies. We account for the White Dish calibration uncertai nty and marginalize over the offset and gradient removed from the data. Our 2 sigma upper limits on the amplitude of the cosmic microwave background r adiation anisotropy are larger than those derived previously. These upper l imits are consistent with those derived from the COBE Differential Microwav e Radiometer data for all models tested.
