More than 95 percent of the solar type III bursts observed by the two Voyager spacecraft when they were in the solar hemisphere opposite the earth were also recorded by ISEE-3, and 10 of 21 type III bursts whose electron streams were directed toward the earth were recorded on the far side of the sun by Voyager. It is presently suggested that the reason for this widespread visibility is a high degree of radio wave scattering that originates at or near the local plasma frequency. Such other observed features of solar bursts as large apparent source heights may be explained by the strong scattering.
