Description

We have made total flux density observations at high radio frequencies (90 and 230 GHz) of 12 Southern sources that were classified as possible ERGET identifications in the Third EGRET Catalog. Our observations confirm the blazar-nature of 9 of them. We have also studied sources that we considered good candidates for AGN counterparts of previously unidentified EGRET sources and which had not been observed in the millimeter domain before. Four of them showed millimeter-domain activity which may be related to their gamma-ray activity, making them good candidates for the EGRET source identification
