Spectra of six variable extragalactic radio sources at epoch 1976.25 and of these plus 12 additional sources at epoch 1976.75 have been obtained from observations with the RATAN-600 radio telescope at wavelengths of 2.08, 3.9, 6.52, and 13.0. Calibration of the antenna and the rms error in single-observation flux-density determination are discussed. Flux-density spectra are plotted, observations of the galaxy Markarian 509 are examined, and the angular diameters of the compact radio components in the quasars PKS 2134+004 and 3C 279 are computed. The possibility is considered of using the spectra obtained to aid in selecting optimum baselines for VLBI observations.
