Type III Solar Burst


Rapidly drift from high to low frequencies. May exhibit harmonics.
Often accompany the flash phase of large flares.

The chart above was taken from the Winward Community College Jupiter Observatory receiver at 20.1 mHz on September 20, 2000. The times are local Hawaiian time so add 10 hours for UT. The burst is believed to be about 18 dB above the galactic background.
