Scientific paper

Results are presented for a P(D)-type analysis performed on 5.0-GHz results obtained in a search for emission from nearby E and S0 galaxies. The analysis is shown to confirm a previously suggested dependence of the form of the number - flux-density relation on frequency. Implications for the cosmological behavior of flat-spectrum sources are examined in a series of source-count calculations. These calculations indicate that the emergence of an evolving low-luminosity population among the faint sources at 5.0 GHz would generally result in a resteepening of the count at small flux densities.
