Description:
    The Westerbork Nortern Sky Survey (WENSS) is a low-frequency (325 MHz)
    radio survey that will cover the whole sky north of a declination of
    30 degrees A first installment of the survey covers an area of 570
    square degrees around the North Ecliptic Pole. A source list
    comprising 11,299 sources and 994 components is listed in Table 6 of
    the paper. This table is presented here.
