Extract

The heights of solar radio sources at 1424 MHz and 696 MHz have been measured during the years 1965 and 1966. Solar activity at this time was near minimum. The number of radio sources appearing on the solar disk rarely exceeded three at any time and it thus was possible to resolve the majority of these with a high resolution grating interferometer. Many of the previous height measurements at these frequencies have been made near times of maximum solar activity and the confusion of sources within the beam has limited their accuracy. The number of sources studied here is quite considerably higher than in any previous investigation at these frequencies, and the period of observation has been continuous.
