Popis: VLA maps of total intensity and fractional polarization at 3.6 cm are presented for eight radio galaxies, part of a sample of 30 nearby FRII sources with P 178 > 2 × 10 25 W/(Hz × sr). High-sensitivity images of the hotspots (with resolutions of 0.25 and 0.75 arcsec and average noise levels of ∼30 μJy) show strikingly different and complex structures. Jets are found in six of the sources
