The results of a survey of radio sources in the galactic plane in the longitude range 1800 to 400 with the 1 mile Molonglo Cross telescope at 408 MHz are presented. The methods of observation and reduction are described briefly. The catalogue lists the position, flux density, size, and spectral index for 80 sources

A catalogue of 'smaIl-diameter' galactic radio sources observed at a frequency of 408 MHz with the Molonglo radiotelescope is presented. The catalogue covers an area of 0�40 sr enclosed in the range [II = 190�-360�-50�, 1 bIll..;; 3�. The sources listed are those which show no significant broadening of the ~ 3' arc aerial beam. Small-diameter features bounded or confused by extended regions of emission are not included. A total of 513 sources are listed above a flux density of O' 6 Jy. While most of these are expected to be extragalactic, the list includes some known pulsars and small-diameter HII regions. The catalogue should form a useful search list for the identification of other such galactic objects.

Cosmological evolution of synchrotron spectra of the powerful extragalactic radio sources was studied by many authors. Some indications of such an evolution had been found firstly by analysis of ‘spectral index - flux density’ (α – S) relation for the sample of relatively strong radio sources. Later Gopal-Krishna and Steppe extended the analysis to weaker sources and found that the slope of αmed(S) curve changes dramatically at intermediate flux densities. Gopal-Krishna and Steppe pointed out that the maxima of the αmed(S) curve and of differential source counts are at almost the same flux density ranges (see, Fig. 2). It has to be noticed that the all mentioned results were obtained using the low-frequency spectral indices and on the basis of low frequency samples.

A catalogue of lSI radio sources is presented covering the declination zone +4� to +25� and all right ascensions, omitting two regions within approximately 10� of the galactic plane (R.A. 05h30'" to 07ho()m and R.A. lShOO'" to 2Oh30"'). The catalogue was compiled from a 'fast' finding survey at 2700 MHz aimed at detecting sources stronger than o� 5 Jy. Subsequently, measurements of accurate flux density and position were made on all the sources which were not in the Parkes 40S MHz catalogue and on a few sources in the 40S MHz catalogue for which only data of low accuracy were available. The' positions of sources were determined to an accuracy of 10" arc r.m.s. in both coordinates. Flux densities for most of the sources were also measured at 5009 MHz. Identifications are suggested for 17 galaxies and 62 quasi-stellar objects.

Brightness distributions and flux densities at 8�8 GHz are presented for 12 small-diameter radio sources near the galactic plane. Each of these sources has been classified at one time or another as a supernova remnant. For one source, G295� 2 - 0�6, the flux density at 8�8 GHz confirms the thermal spectrum suggested by lower frequency measurements and indicates that it is not a supernova remnant. Another source, G309� 6+ 1�7, is thought to be extragalactic.

A catalogue of 166 radio sources is presented, covering an area of 0�63 sr with right ascensions 0Qh to 03h, 04h to OSh 30"', 17h 30'" to 19h and 20b to 23h between declinations -45� and - 65�. The regions omitted are either close to the galactic plane (OSh 30'" to 17h 30"') or are covered in the third part of the Parkes 2700 MHz survey. The catalogue was compiled from a 'fast' finding survey at 2700 MHz aimed at detecting sources stronger than o� 5 Jy. Subsequent measurements at 2700 and 5009 MHz of flux density and position were made for all sources which were not in the Parkes 40S MHz catalogue and for 42 sources in the 40S MHz catalogue for which only data of low accuracy were available.

A catalogue of 618 extragalactic radio sources obtained from a sky survey at 2700 MHz is presented. The area of 0�42 sr covers four southern zones of R.A. 03h to 04h , II h to 12h , 19h to 20h , and 23h to 00h, between Dec. -330 and -75�, with a region omitted in the llh zone which is close to the galactic plane. The catalogue is complete to a limiting flux density of 0�32 f.u. at 2700 MHz and is thought to be 90% complete at a flux density of 0�20 f.u. The positions are accurate to 15" arc or slightly better in both coordinates for sources stronger than 0�32 f.u.; the flux densities of the weaker sources are accurate to 0�02 f.u., and for sources stronger than 1 f.u. the accuracy is 3%.
