Radio structures of Seyfert galaxies. VII - Extension of a distance-limited sample

The VLA has been used at 6 and 20 cm to observe 27 Seyfert galaxies with recessional velocities less than 4600 km/s that had not been mapped previously. The sample shows weak trends for Seyfert 2 galaxies to have more luminous and larger radio sources than Seyfert 1 galaxies. A 20 cm radio luminosity function is constructed for each Seyfert type and shown to be fairly flat for powers betwen 10 to the 20th and 10 to the 23rd W/Hz. About 10 percent of the galaxies in the present sample may have flat-spectrum components contributing a substantial amount of their total flux density at centimeter wavelengths.
