Abstract

Optical counterparts for the 23 radio sources of the Parkes 2700 MHz survey located in the vicinity of (00 h 53 m, - 28 deg 00 min) were searched within + or - 2 rms errors of their improved radio positions using deep Kodak III aJ plates taken with the Maksutov telescope at Cerro El Roble. Twelve new identifications are proposed, of which 7 are galaxies, while the search areas of 5 radio sources appear blank to the plate limit. Although no new optical counterparts of stellar appearance were found, precise optical positions are given for the already known ones.
