The variable BL Lac objects OJ 287 and B2 (1308+326) have been observed using the Ooty Synthesis Radio Telescope (OSRT) at 327 MHz. Preliminary analysis of one of them, namely OJ 287 indicates that flux variations of ∼ 20% on a time scale of few hours to few days could be present, but this needs to be confirmed by a larger data base.
