During September 1988 (International Solar Month) we observed the Sun with the Very Large Array on 4 days in the period Sep. 11-17. The VLA was in its most compact configuration, which is ideal for studying large-scale coronal structures. Here we summarize some preliminary results of the observations at 0.333 and 1.5 GHz. Despite the presence of numerous active regions the Sun was actually very quiet, with no flares during our observing, and this allowed us to make high-dynamic-range maps.
