Abstract
We present the results of a radio continuum survey at 21 cm wavelength of the Galactic plane between 95.degrees 5 less than or equal to l le ss than or equal to 240 degrees and -4 degrees less than or equal to b less than or equal to +5 degrees with the Effelsberg 100-m telescope. The data have been absolutely calibrated by using the Stockert northe rn sky survey at the same wavelength. This survey complements the Effe lsberg 21 cm Galactic plane survey for l less than or equal to 95.degr ees 5 by Reich et al. (1990a). The results are presented as contour ma ps with a sensitivity of 100 mK T-B at an angular resolution (HPBW) of 9.'4. In addition we extend the list of compact sources given by Reic h et al. (1990a) by 1830 new entries. These sources have peak flux den sities exceeding 160 mK T-B (or 79 mJy/beam area) and apparent sizes o f less than 16'.
