An interpretation of the millisecond structure occasionally observed in meter-wavelength solar radio bursts is offered which parallels that given for the decameter s-bursts on Jupiter. The source would be a slightly anisotropic plasma with a quasi-homogeneous magnetic field. A bunch of hot electrons would excite plasma waves near the upper hybrid resonance frequency; scattered by thermal ions, these would transform into ordinary and extraordinary electromagnetic waves for which the refractive indices n(o,ex) are much less than 1. The negative frequency drift of solar s-bursts could be due to group delay as these waves propagate outward and escape from their generation site. The quasi-periodicity of the s-burst trains would signify that the plasma waves are converted into ordinary and extraordinary waves in a pulsed mode.
