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.

The recently characterized Cosmic Radio Background provides a unique perspective in which to study the nonthermal universe, including properties and cosmological evolution of active galaxies and their outflows. As much as 1/3 of the total intensity of the radio background can be due to emission resulting from classical jet processes in radio galaxies and radio quiet quasars. Furthermore, weak jet activity in Seyferts and ordinary star-forming galaxies may also be important.
