Abstract

Two complete subsamples of early and late type spiral galaxies were mapped with the VLA in order to explore their radio and optical properties. The choice of the samples is explained, and the observational procedure and data reduction are described. The detection rate was 97 percent, with a detection limit of the order of 1-2 mJy. Total intensity data at 20 cm are presented for the whole sample, and 6 cm data for 11 galaxies. The results are presented in the form of tables and radio contour maps, and are discussed in comparison with previous work.
