Symmetric, two-sided morphology seems to argue against relativistic effects dominating compact radio emission. This kind of structure has been reported for a number of sources (Phillips and Mutel 1982; Pearson 1983) based on maps made at one frequency. Various arguments, all indirect, can be made for these sources being (1) Twin regions formed at the ends of jets which emerge from an invisible core, or (2) misidentified core-jet sources wherein the core and an unusually bright knot are wrongly taken to be a “double.” A telling test of both hypotheses is to map the sources in question over an octave or so of frequency. Proponents of view (1) would predict that the two double components will show nearly identical spectral indices and that weak central cores with flat or rising spectra might even be revealed. Champions of view (2) would predict that one end or the other will dominate at high frequencies (the core!) or that complex bridges of emission (the jet!) will be revealed between the components at low frequencies. We have followed our initial discovery of 5 symmetric compact doubles by (A) attempting to enlarge the sample of symmetric sources available to study, and (B) by investigating at 5 GHz those doubles for which the best maps exist at 1.7 GHz.
