Radio continuum emission at 20 cm has been observed in a sample of 16 edge-
on galaxies, using the VLA in its A configuration. These galaxies were obse
rved recently at lower resolution by Irwin et al., who found evidence for e
xtraplanar disk-halo features in 15 of the 16 galaxies. Twelve of the galax
ies are detected in the new high-resolution observations. Of these, only tw
o, which were previously known Seyferts, show convincing evidence for AGNs.
For six of the galaxies, we provide improved positions for the galaxy nucl
ei. In four galaxies, radio continuum loops extending perpendicular to the
major axis have been discovered, confirming previous conclusions from lower
resolution observations that extraplanar emission is present, as well as p
roviding further evidence that radio "halos" consist, at least in part, of
underlying discrete features. For several galaxies, the resolution is suffi
cient to reveal individual star-forming regions in the disk. We examine NGC
3556 in detail since this galaxy has been shown by King & Irwin to display
extremely large H I supershells. The estimated input energy from supernova
e in the brightest radio component of this galaxy is insufficient to drive
the observed H I supershells. We explore possible resolutions to this energ
y deficit.
