N: 94+2
Object:(Rad)  (SIMBAD class: Radio = Radio Source)
Note:Nomenclature introduced by Fomalont et al. in the style of Cambridge, Westerbork, Penticton, for sources discovered with the VLA. 1V to 14V have not been used formerly. 16V and 17V appear in ref. 1993ApJ...405..498W. Subsequent observations at 1.5 GHz, field of area 1.5x10-5 sr centered at alpha = 14h16m and Dec = 52.7deg (1950). The range of angular size detectable is between 0".3 to 100". 62 sources compiled with a peak flux density at 5 GHz greater than 16 microJy at 8" resolution and a typical positional accuracy of 0".2.
