Abstract This survey dataset is an extraction of the GOT experiment v019b. The extraction was received on tape from Socorro containing data for four GRTs plus HALCA. All but 3 GRTs at any one time were flagged before imaging in Difmap. LA,NL,SC are used during the first hour of data, and LA,MK,SC during the remaining three hours. Suggested parameters for all AIPS tasks were used. CALIB was not run so the final SN and CL tables have non-zero phases in them. Imaging and model-fitting both went very well and produced good results. Structure is seen in the survey image out to ~20 mas from the core, in good agreement with the USNO map at 8 GHz from 1997 Dec.
