  We have carried out a series of observations of the 1665- and 1667-MHz
transitions of the 2Pi_3/2, J=3/2 OH ground state towards six selected HII
regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud (IRAS 05011-6815 and MRC 0510-689,
0513-694B, 0539-691, 0540-696B, 0540-697A) using the Australia Telescope
Compact Array. The study has provided the first accurate positions for known
1665- and 1667-MHz OH masers as well as detecting several new masers. The
regions all contain H_2O or CH_3OH masers but OH masers were detected in only
four. The 1.6-GHz continuum emission was also imaged to investigate its spatial
relationship to the associated OH maser. Although some masers are close to
compact continuum components, in other cases they are near the continuum
distribution boundaries and perhaps have been created as a result of the HII
region interacting with the surrounding interstellar medium.
