The H II region surrounding Beta Lyr and responsible for its radio emission has been modeled. The region has a radius of 50 AU, a temperature of 10,000 K, and an electron density of 10 million per cu cm. Some 237 suns of Lyman continuum radiation are needed to excite the region. To provide this amount, it is concluded that the secondary is a B2.5 V or B5 II star; it cannot be a black hole.
