Complete samples of quasars in the 3CR and 4C catalogues have been observed with a resolution of 2″ arc in RA and 2″ cosecδ in dec with the Cambridge 5-km telescope at 5 GHz (Riley & Pooley 1975; Jenkins et al 1977), from which it has been possible to determine the overall angular sizes of their radio structures (LAS). The angular diameter-redshift test for quasars has been reexamined using these data; details are described fully elsewhere (Hooley et al 1977).
