Abstract

We have constructed composite spectra of a large sample of flat-spectrum radio sources. The spectra are all very similar over a wide range of radio and optical properties, and are also similar to a composite of optically selected QSOs. We find, however, that the forbidden lines of the very reddest objects are anomalously strong.
