Abstract
The polar diagram of synchrotron radiation from the developed steady n arrow jet in the radial magnetic field of the active core of an extrag alactic object is calculated. Calculations were done for the normalize d frequency and two spectral indices of emitting particles: gamma = 1. 4 and 2.5. The frequency dependence found is not typical for a known r elativistic jet model. The maximum number of detected sources consiste nt with model gamma = 2.5 is shown to be reached at frequency 18 GHz. The fraction of such sources directed to the observer and emitting at this frequency is evaluated to be of 0.09.
