Most observations of interplanetary scintillations of radio sources are made at frequencies around 80 MHz. These observations are limited to regions close to the sun, where the scintillations are maximum at this frequency. It is possible to extend these observations to the weakly scattering regions beyond 1 A.U. by making measurements at low frequencies. We have built a low frequency antenna system at Gauribidanur, India (Lat. 13° 36′ N and Long. 5 hrs. 10 min.), which can be used for this purpose. Although this system will not be dedicated to IPS, we intend to use it exclusively for solar wind observations during periods of interest.
