This paper presents a review of recent advances in those observations of radio pulsars which are relevant to the understanding of “where” and “how” the radio signals are generated in the magnetosphere of the neutron star. These include (i) results from simultaneous multi-frequency observations, (ii) emission geometry studies of multi-component pulsars, (iii) results from drifting and nulling pulsars, (iv) constraints from single pulse statistics and (v) progress in giant pulse studies.
