A flare on the dMe star AD Leonis was simultaneously observed with the radio telescopes in Effelsberg, Jodrell Bank, and Arecibo using spectrometers at 1665, 1666, and 1415 MHz with bandwidths of 25, 100, and 40 MHz, respectively. The time coincidence confirms the stellar origin of the radiation. The flare emission was resolved into a multitude of broadband pulsations. Their e-folding rise and decay times were of the order of the time resolution of the Effelsberg data (125 ms), or less. The circular polarization was about 100 percent. Similar bursts, but 4 orders of magnitude less powerful, have been observed from the sun at lower frequencies.
