A comparison of the flux density ratiossof the two components of extragalactic double radio sources and the ratiosrof their angular separations from the associated optical object has been made for the Ooty occupation and 3CR samples. No marked variation is seen in the statistical properties ofrandsover a range of flux density exceeding 10 to 1. The distribution ofrindicates an average velocity of separation of the two components from the parent object of less than about 0.2c. Simultaneous consideration of therandsdistributions indicates in addition a rapid evolution of the luminosity of radio components with age. Alternatively, the observations can be explained by assuming a non-uniform intergalactic medium with density variations of about a factor of 2 over scales exceeding several tens of kpc.
