Maps are presented with a channel velocity resolution of about 9 km\,s$^{-1}$\ and with angular resolutions of 4$''$ $\times$ 3$''$. Some clear results are highlighted here, such as absorption from the Circumnuclear Disk (CND) and the OH-Streamer inside the CND near Sgr A$^*$, strong absorption towards most of the eastern and western parts of the Sgr A East shell, lack of absorption towards both Sgr A West and the compact HII-regions to the east of Sgr A East, and double-lobed structure of the High Negative Velocity Gas (HNVG) oriented northeast and southwest of Sgr A$^*$, and finally compact, point-like maser emission in all four transitions, in particular a 1720-MHz maser at $-$132km\,s$^{-1}$\ in the CND as counterpart to a 1720-MHz maser at $+$132km\,s$^{-1}$\ in the CND. \end{abstract} \end{document} saerimner[262]:papfi> more GC GCNEWSoh.tex GCNEWSoh.tex~ saerimner[262]:papfi> more GCNEWSoh.tex % A&A 403, 1011 (2003) \documentstyle[apjfonts, emulateapj]{article} \begin{document} \title{18-cm VLA observations of OH towards the Galactic Centre.
