Abstract:
    We present a new catalogue of radio-continuum sources in the field of
    the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). This catalogue contains sources
    previously not found in 2370MHz (λ=13cm) with sources found at
    1400MHz (λ=20cm) and 843MHz (λ=36cm). 45 sources have
    been detected at 13cm, with 1560 sources at 20cm created from new
    high sensitivity and resolution radio-continuum images of the SMC at
    20cm from paper I (Wong et al., 2011SerAJ.182...43W). We also created
    a 36cm catalogue to which we listed 1689 radio-continuum sources.

Description:
    The 13cm radio-continuum catalogue was produced from a SMC mosaic
    radio survey of 20 square degrees (Filipovic et al., 2002, Cat.
    J/MNRAS/335/1085). These observations have a beam size of ∼40" and
    r.m.s. noise of 0.4mJy/beam.
