Abstract

Radio- and visible-wavelength observations for the BL Lac object 1219 + 28 (ON 231, W Com) are reported along with optical observations of 0851 + 202 (OJ 287), and radio data for 1400 + 162 (4C 16.39, OQ 100). The obtained data consist of imaging and surface photometry for both 1219 + 28 and 0851 + 202, as well as spectra for 1219 + 28, and Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations for 1219 + 28 and 1400 + 162. Two emission features have been observed in the spectrum of 1219 + 28. Radio observations of 1219 + 28 in three frequencies reveal the presence of a radio jet with at least three components. The obtained results for 1219 + 28 support previous conclusions that at least some BL Lac objects are located at the center of elliptical galaxies.
