Figure 1. Brightness distributions of 15 nearby radio galaxies at 2.7GHz.
For each source, details of the map are given. Maps at 5.0 GHz are from the
5-km telescope and are of I - Q. The zero contour level is suppressed on the
maps and negative contours are dashed. Unless otherwise noted, the contour
interval is 3 mJy per beam area for 5-km maps. Details are given of any
unusual map processing. A cross marks the position of the associated galaxy's
nucleus, as given by Dressel & Condon (1976). The formal accuracy of these
positions is +/- 4 arcsec. Map coordinates are for epoch 1950.0. The L-shape
in the map corner gives the FWHM of the beam in right ascension and
declination. The FWHM in right ascension of the beam is 2.0 arcsec at 5 GHz at
full resolution, and is larger in declination by a factor cosec {delta}.
