We report the detection of carbon radio recombination lines (CRRLs) near 34.5 MHz (n ∼ 575) and near 328 MHz (n ∼ 270) from 6 positions with l < 17°, b = 0°. Modelling the data shows that the observed CRRLs can arise under a range of physical conditions which are found in atomic HI, molecular and photo-dissociation regions (PDRs) in the galactic disk.
