Simulated 20 cm continuum observation with the SKA of a region the size and shape of the Hubble Deep Field. The radio source population is derived from an extrapolation
of the known population above 1 Jy. With a 5-sigma detection limit after 8 hours of about 100 nJy, the simulated SKA image contains 2700 sources. Starburst galaxies are shown in blue and Radio Galaxies and Active Galactic Nuclei in pink.
