This paper describes the instruments, methodolory, and results of a marine magnetometer survey of twenty-five miles of the South Texas coast conducted by the Underwater Archeological Research Section of the Texas Antiquities Committee. Three electronics systems werc interfaced and data was recorded on magnetic tape cassettes. The electronicssystems utilized were the Varian V-85 Proton Magnetometer, the Motorola Mini-Ranger III, andthe Hewlett-Fackard 9821 Programmable Calculator and 9862 Plotter. Data analysis was carried out with the aid of computer drawn contour maps.
