Very red QSOs exhibit flattening of the spectral-flux distributions at infrared wavelengths. The objects in this study are associated with radio sources with spectra that are generally described by power laws, and such spectra are characteristic of extended lobes of radio emission. One source that has been studied with high angular resolution at λ = 6 cm, 3CR68.1, exhibits only the emission from the lobes, and a low upper limit of 2 mJy has been obtained on the 6-cm flux of the visually identified QSO. This object appears to be a relatively radio-weak (or radio-quiet?) QSO. High angular resolution radio-frequency studies of other objects in the sample are encouraged.
