We have used the VLA to survey 10 fields at 20 cm (1658MHz) and 11 fields at 6 cm (5GHz) that are between 7' and 137' from SgrA. Our objective was to identify extragalactic sources and measure their scattering diameters so as to constrain the GC-scattering region separation. In order to find sources within these fields, we have employed pdfCLEAN, a source detection algorithm in which sources are identified in an image by comparing the intensity histogram of the image to that expected from a noise-only image. We found over 100 sources, with the faintest sources being approximately 3 mJy. The average number of sources per field is approximately 10, though fields close to SgrA tend to contain fewer sources. A number of Galactic sources are included in our source catalog. The double-lobed source 1LC 359.872+0.178, potentially an X-ray quiet version of 1E 1740.7-2942, a shell-like structure with a central point source, and a possible radio transient, are discussed in the paper.
