Appendix A: Maps of all the detected radio sources

In this appendix we present the contour plots of all the sources detected in our survey. IRAS-PSC2 sources are shown as ellipses corresponding to the 90% confidence on the peak position. The positions of the peaks of the 20 cm sources from Zoonematkermani et al. (1990) are shown as crosses. Dashed ellipses show the deconvolved sizes of the 20 cm NVSS survey sources (Condon et al. 1998). In Figs. A1 and A2 the NVSS ellipses may fall partially (or completely) outside the plotted area, thus we marked the NVSS peak position with an empty square.

Figure A1: 3.6 and 6 cm maps of the unresolved sources detected at both frequencies; crosses mark the peak positions of 20 cm sources from Zoonematkermani et al. (1990); open sqares mark the positions of the peaks of NVSS sources (Condon et al. 1998), the deconvolved FWHM of these sources are shown as dashed ellipses, which may be partially outside the plotted area

Figure A3: 3.6 and 6 cm maps of the extended source G045.066+0.138 (30), and the compact sources G045.070+0.132 (11) and G045.072+0.132 (12); contour levels are -8, from 8 to 50 by 5 and from 50 to 300 by 50 mJy/beam at 3.6 cm, and -10, from 10 to 22 by 3, from 30 to 90 by 15, 120 and 150 mJy/beam at 6 cm. The filled ellipse represent the IRAS-PSC error box

Figure A5: 3.6 cm maps of the extended sources G045.479+0.130 (32) on the left panel and 045.455+0.059 (33) and compact source G045.455+0.060 (18) on the right panel; contour levels are: -3, from 3 to 37 by 5 mJy/beam, and -9, from 9 to 27 by 6, from 39 to 75 by 12, 100, 150 and 200 mJy/beam. The filled ellipse represent the IRAS-PSC error box

Figure A6: 3.6 and 6 cm maps of the extended source G045.190-0.439 (34); contour levels are -0.6, from 0.6 to 3.3 by 0.4 mJy/beam at 3.6 cm, and -0.9, from 0.9 to 2.7 by 0.6, from 3.9 to 7.5 by 1.2 mJy/beam at 6 cm. The filled ellipse represent the IRAS-PSC error box
