We analyzed the 11 cm Galactic Plane survey carried out with the Effelsberg 100-m telescope for small diameter sources. We present a list of 6483 radio sources with a maximum apparent size of 12'and peak flux densities > 40 mJy/beam area. Point-like sources are almost evenly distributed over the surveyed area, except that we miss some sources in the highly confused inner part of the Galaxy and the Cygnus X complex. At Galactic longitudes l > 100^deg^ the list of compact sources is almost complete above an integrated flux density limit of 70 mJy. Most of them are extragalactic. Extended sources show a concentration toward, the Galactic Plane. At longitudes l < 100^deg^ the scale height is about 0.6^deg^. An excess of about 900 extended sources is most likely of Galactic nature.
