The H I-optical content of the Catalogue of Radial Velocities of Galaxies (Palumbo et al., 1983) and its up-dated extension have been investigated in order to study the cross-comparison of these two kinds of measurements over the whole range of measured velocities. The statistical behaviour of the radio-optical residuals have been surveyed for double galaxies, Seyfert galaxies, different morphological types and inclinations. The consistency among various sources of 21 cm data has been investigated and a self-adjusted average H I velocity available on each galaxy has been used to evaluate possible external errors of 25 optical references. The outcoming results have been compared with those obtained considering the H I standard proposed by Rood (1982).
