Optical and radio observations of DA 240 are presented which suggest that there is a collimated structure in its outer components. A probable morphological connection is noted between the outer radio emission and the optical jet in the central galaxy MCG 9-13-57. This system and NGC 5128/Cen A have striking features in common including a strong indication that the gas flowing in the jet contains thermal material and is moving nonrelativistically. The fact that optical jets are narrow, often embedded in diffuse emission and include a blue continuum gives the Space Telescope clear advantages over ground based instruments.
