Abstract
We consider the formation of spectral disturbances of cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation at the epoch of helium recombination at re dshifts z approximate to 2700 and z approximate to 6000 with special e mphasis on the decimeter-wavelength range. It is shown that, depending on the set of cosmological parameters, the amplitude of the disturban ces of the Planck CMB spectrum, Delta T/(CMB), due to the He III and H e II recombinations at decimeter wavelengths can reach 10(-6) and 3 x 10(-7), respectively.
