... 739C As one part of a program to detect complete samples of active extragalactic objects, the 3.36x10^-3 sr field centered on alpha=12h04min, delta=+11deg30' (1950.0) was mapped with the Very Large Array at 1411MHz. Sixty-seven maps cover this field so that no point is more than 15arcmin from the nearest map center. ... The rms map noise is 0.030 + 0.001 mJy, and the resulting source list is complete to a map peak flux density S_p = 0.2 mJy within 25 arcmin of the field center. ...
