   We propose observations of X-ray unbiased sample of LINERs in nearby
   galaxies. About 10 LINERs have been observed by ASCA to search for
   AGNs. Low luminosity AGN, X-ray luminosity ranging from 10E40 to 10E41
   erg/s, are found in most of them. However they are biased to those
   galaxies which exhibit AGN like activities in various form. We selected
   2 LINER galaxies with large Halpha flux to construct an Halpha limited
   sample. Our aims are (1)to understand physics in LINERs using a well
   selected small sample, (2)to calibrate correlations between X-ray and
   other wavelength properties (3)to estimate the X-ray luminosity
   function of AGN at the low luminosity end and to set limits to
   contribution to the X-ray background using optical complete survey
   results and X-ray results.
