On 8–12 October 1981 a 5-station MkII VLBI experiment at 1660 MHz was performed using antennas at Westford, Maryland Point, Green Bank, Fort Davis, and Owens Valley. Fifteen extragalactic sources (Table 1) were observed with an average synthesized beam of roughly 10 mas. The data were processed using the NRAO correlator, globally fringe-fit, and mapped with the AIPS package. In addition to the usual self-calibration techiques, corrections were made to eliminate baseline-dependent calibration errors. Some of the sources, for example 1641+399 (3C345), display extended components not before observed at the dynamic range of the maps, which on the average is roughly 200:1.
