What is it about?

We present a multi-frequency study of the intermediate spiral galaxy NGC 6744 using available radio and X-ray data. We identify 117 X-ray sources and 280 radio sources. Of these, we find nine sources in common between the X-ray and radio catalogues, one of which is a faint central black hole.
