ADC_Keywords: Magellanic Clouds ; Radio sources Keywords: galaxies: Magellanic Clouds - radio continuum: galaxies - catalogue Description: We present a new catalogue of radio sources in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) based on observations at 2.30GHz with the Parkes radio telescope. A total of 119 sources have been detected. We compare positions and flux densities of these sources with previously published radio results and find no significant positional displacement or flux discrepancies. File Summary:
