An interpretation of the low-frequency type II solar radio bursts of June 30, 1971, and August 7-8, 1972, observed with the IMP-6 satellite is suggested. The analysis is carried out for two models of the electron density distribution in the interplanetary medium taking into account that the electron density is about 3.5 per cu cm at a distance of 1 AU. It is assumed that the frequency of the radio emission corresponds to the average electron density behind the shock front, which exceeds the undisturbed electron density by the factor of 3. The radio data indicate essential deceleration of the shock waves during propagation from the sun up to 1 AU. The characteristics of the shock waves obtained from the type II bursts agree with the results of in situ observations.
