Ways in which radio continuum observations of shell SNR can be applied to the study of astrophysical particle acceleration are discussed. As an example, radio observations of SNRs Cas A, G39.2-0.3, and G41.1-0.3 are presented. It is found that spatial variations in the radio spectral index, observed in several shell remnants, in conjunction with measurements of radio brightness and polarization, can provide constraints for various acceleration models.
