Description:
A number of flat spectrum radio sources have been observed in optical
spectroscopy; most of the sources are either classified as BL Lacertae
objects or have been described as BL Lac candidates.

History:
* 25-Nov-1994: Original version
* 14-Mar-2005: in table3.dat, the Object 1945+725 was corrected
into 1945+726, in order to be consistent with the other tables.
