Abstract:
    In this report we present the results of observations of a complete
    sample of sources from the PMN Survey. The adopted selection criteria
    were: flux density >200mJy at the PMN Survey frequency 4.8GHz;
    0h=10(deg} to exclude the
    galactic plane. Five runs of observations were accomplished in
    1995-1996. The observations were made at 0.96, 2.3, 3.9, 7.7 and
    11.2GHz at the RATAN-600 radio telescope. For all sources of the
    sample, flux densities at five frequencies and their simultaneous
    spectra were determined, accuracies in RA were improved 5-10 times.
    Identifications with data from the Texas Survey were performed.
