From observations of the radio continuum radiation at 1415 MHz of 450 galaxies, 190 galaxies were detected. Results of the radio continuum survey are tabulated, including luminosity class, optical size, distance, total flux density, radio extent along the major axis and the ratio of radio to optical luminosity; in addition, the strip distributions of the detected galaxies from the optically selected sample are presented. The detection limit for point sources is 10 mJy and the resolution is about 23 arc sec on the average. Contamination by background sources is also discussed, along with a comparison of 1D and 2D observations with the WSRT, and a comparison with 1415 MHz surveys.
