Radio properties of optically selected high-redshift quasars. I - VLA observations of 22 quasars at 6 cmA total of 22 optically selected high-redshift QSOs were obseved at 5 GHz with the VLA. The measured radio properties of low-redshift optically selected quasars indicate that radio emission should have been detected from 5-10 objects in this sample of high-redshift QSOs, but only one QSO was found to have a radio flux above the 5 sigma limit of roughly 0.2 mJy. Possible explanations of this finding are considered.
