Abstract
All 280 of the statistically-complete Palomar sample of nearby (<120 Mpc)
galaxies dec > 20 degrees have been observed at 1.5 GHz as part of the LeMMINGs
e-MERLIN legacy survey. Here, we present Chandra X-ray observations of the
nuclei of 213 of these galaxies, including a statistically-complete sub-set of
113 galaxies in the declination range 40 degrees to 65 degrees. We observed
galaxies of all optical spectral types, including 'active' galaxies (e.g.,
LINERs and Seyferts) and 'inactive' galaxies like HII galaxies and absorption
line galaxies (ALG). The X-ray flux limit of our survey is
1.65$\times
