The central region of Fornax A, a 30-arcmin radio double, contains two radio components at 4.9 GHz; a compact component no more than about 1 arcsec (no more than about 80 pc) containing 25 + or - 3 mJy and a more extended component about 20 arcsec (about 1500 pc) in size containing 65 + or - 10 mJy. Both components are probably coincident with the nucleus of the galaxy NGC 1316. With the discovery of the compact component in Fornax A, all ten of the nearest and nine of the ten brightest radio doubles have been shown to contain a radio core.
