Description:
    The initial results are presented of a spectroscopic study of a sample 
    of cD galaxy clusters. Redshifts are presented for 611 galaxies in the 
    fields of the rich Abell clusters A193, A399, A401, A1795, A1809, A2063, 
    and A2124.

Note (1):
    A letter "E" in the comments field means that the velocity was derived from
     emission lines only.
    For galaxy 388 in table4, the listed velocities were derived from emission
     and absorption lines separately.
    The letter "A" indicates the presence of absorption lines in the higher
     Balmer lines.
    The number of independent measurements contributing to the combined velocity
     of the cD are also reported.
    The identifying number of each cD galaxy is 201, except for the A399 cD
     which is 448 in table4
