Observations of 77 RS CVn and related active binary systems were made with VLA at a continuum frequency of 4.86 GHz. The results are combined with other VLA observations to produce a total number of observed sources of 122. A search for correlations of radio properties with various systemic and stellar parameters is performed. Significant correlations are found between the normalized radio luminosity L(6)/L(bol) and the normalized soft X-ray luminosity L(x)/L(bol). It is suggested that the close correlation between low-level 6-cm emission and the hot component of the soft X-ray emission observed by the Einstein solid state spectrometer is caused by both emissions being produced by the same thermal electrons.
