VLA observations of the 5-GHz H2CO maser emission towards Sgr B2, made with high spectral and angular resolution (0.76 km s-1, 1.25 arcsec respectively), show that most of the emission consists of multiple narrow components with velocity halfwidths between 0.6 and 3.0 km s-1. The minimum maser gains range from 0.2 to 60. All five masers are located near OH or H2O masers, suggesting a common mechanism for maser production.
