Abstract Between 1972 and 1975 an international collaborative search was carried out for prompt 10 GHz emission at the onset of supernovae. The motivations and techniques involved in this effort are described, and the results of the three years' work are summarized. No pulses from supernovae were detected, the best upper limit being 4×1043 ergs in a 40 MHz band at 10 GHz for a pulse time-scale ≲0.5 s. Methods for improving this limit are briefly described.
