The past 3 years since the last solar maximum have witnessed an unprecedented number (>200) of published scientific papers on many aspects of solar radiophysics. These contributions are the result of an intense research effort mounted during the first Solar Maximum Mission of 1980 and continued until the present. Excellent x-ray, EUV, and visible light observations of the disturbed corona and transition region have been obtained from the SMM, Hinotori, P78-1, and ISEE-3 spacecraft. ISEE-3 also has provided very low-frequency radio observations of solar bursts in the interplanetary medium. Ground-based radio support for space experiments has been provided by many observatories throughout the world. In particular, many collaborative studies using x-ray and radio observations of solar flares have been reported. The outstanding radio instrument during this period has been the VLA, operating at 2, 6, and 20 cm with a time resolution of 10 s and both modes of circular polarization. The two-dimensional spatial resolution of the radio images is a few seconds of arc, almost as good as the best resolution obtained so far at any wavelength in the solar spectrum. To complement the rather poor time resolution of the VLA one-dimensional arrays such as the WSRT at 6 cm wavelength and the Nobeyama interferometer at 17 GHz have been used successfully. In addition, a number of very-high-time resolution radiometers have been built at different locations. At meter wavelengths two-dimensional arrays at Clark Lake, Culgoora, and Nancay and a one-dimensional array at Nobeyama have been employed. The little known region of the solar spectrum at decimeter wavelengths is being investigated by the Zurich spectrograph. It is pleasing to see Chinese participation in solar radiophysics.
