Abstract
IN a recent article, Radhakrishnan et al.1 commented on the remarkably constant intensity of pulsar PSR 0833–45 at 1,720 and 2,700 MHz. At these frequencies intensity values, averaged over 100 pulses and taken at any tune over several days of observation in December 1968, showed less than 10 per cent variation. Large et al.2 have noticed similar behaviour at 408 MHz. This property of the signal, in fact, greatly facilitated the taking of the polarization measurements which were the main subject of the article by Radhakrishnan et al.
