This campaign has two goals: (1) to observe additional sources that, together with previous survey results, form a complete sample, and (2) to find new strong sources suitable as phase calibrators. This VCS extension was based on three 24-hr VLBA observing sessions in 2005. It detected almost all extragalactic flat-spectrum sources with correlated flux density greater than 200mJy at 8.6GHz above declination -30{deg} that were not observed previously. Source positions with milliarcsecond accuracy were derived from astrometric analysis of ionosphere-free combinations of group delays determined from the 2.3 and 8.6GHz frequency bands. The VCS5 catalog of source positions, plots of correlated flux density versus projected baseline length, contour plots, and FITS files of naturally weighted CLEAN images, as well as calibrated visibility function files, are available on the World Wide Web at http://vlbi.gsfc.nasa.gov/vcs5 2007AJ....133.1236K https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/133/1236 Catalog Research IsServedBy TAP VizieR generic service IsServedBy Conesearch service related-to VIII/65 : 1.4GHz NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) (Condon+ 1998) J/ApJS/141/13 : VLBA calibrator Survey - VCS1 catalog (Beasley+, 2002) J/AJ/126/2562 : Second VLBA calibrator survey: VCS2 (Fomalont+, 2003) J/AJ/129/1163 : Third VLBA calibrator survey: VCS3 (Petrov+, 2005) J/AJ/131/1872 : Fourth VLBA calibrator survey: VCS4 (Petrov+, 2006) http://vlbi.gsfc.nasa.gov/vcs5 : VCS5 Home Page https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.html https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/133/1236 https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/133/1236 http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/133/1236 https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/133/1236 https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/133/1236 http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/133/1236 GET text/xml+votable https://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tap Cone search capability for table J/AJ/133/1236/table2 (Sources not detected in VCS5 VLBA observations) https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/133/1236/table2? https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/133/1236/table2? http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/133/1236/table2?
