Description
We use two independent methods to reduce the data of the surveys made with RATAN-600 radio telescope at 7.6cm in 1988-1999 at the declination of the SS433 source. We also reprocess the data of the "Cold" survey (1980-1981). The resulting RCR (RATAN COLD REFINED) catalogue contains the right ascensions and fluxes of objects identified with those of the NVSS catalogue in the right-ascension interval 7h<=RA<=17h. We obtain the spectra of the radio sources and determine their spectral indices at 3.94 and 0.5GHz. The spectra are based on the data from all known catalogues available from the CATS, Vizier, and NED databases, and the flux estimates inferred from the maps of the VLSS and GB6 surveys. For 245 of the 550 objects of the RCR catalogue the fluxes are known are known only at two frequencies: 3.94GHz (RCR) and 1.4GHz (NVSS). These are mostly sources with fluxes smaller than 30mJy. About 65% of these sources have flat or inverse spectra (alpha>-0.5). We analyse the reliability of the results obtained for the entire list of objects and construct the histograms of the spectral indices and fluxes of the sources. Our main conclusion is that all 10-15mJy objects found in the considered right-ascension interval were already included in the decimetre-wave catalogues.
