Monitoring with the Ryle Telescope at 15 GHz of the Galactic X-ray transient source GRS 1915+105 has revealed a remarkable range of rapid and extended flares which appear to be related to the X-ray emission as recorded by the RXTE all-sky monitor. Quasiperiodic oscillations in the range 20–40 min have been found and are probably related to oscillations in the soft X-ray flux.
