1415 MHz observations of seven optically selected peculiar galactic systems were made with the Westerbork Telescope. Radio emission was detected for six of them. In no case was this emission associated with bridges or tails suggesting that magnetic fields are relatively unimportant in maintaining these structures. For NGC 4038/4039 the radio source is located between the galaxies and its intensity may have been enhanced due to compression of plasma and magnetic field during an encounter. (auth)
