We have obtained direct images and off-nuclear spectra for five QSOs having a wide range of radio, optical and X-ray luminosity. Four objects show absorption features identified with stars in a host galaxy, and off-nuclear changes in emission line wavelengths. All objects show off-nuclear changes in continuum coulour, and in emission line intensities and ratios. The radio loud objects have more luminous galaxies, strong and extended [OII] and [OIII], and UV-bright nuclei. They tend to have luminous nuclei, high nuclear to galaxy luminosity ratio, and blue host galaxies. This paper is a brief summary of results that will appear in more detail elsewhere.
