Strong variable radio emission from the bright transient X-ray source GRO J1655-40 (X-ray Nova Scorpii 1994) has been detected at 843 MHz with the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Telescope (MOST). As the hard X-ray intensity from the 1994 August outburst declined the radio output increased rapidly, reaching a peak of nearly 8 Jy some 12 days after the first X-ray peak. VLBI images obtained at this time showed two main components separating with an apparent transverse velocity > c. The evolution of the radio spectrum suggests that the time delay between X-ray and radio emissions is due, at least in part, to opacity effects associated with this expansion.
