The light curve for steady Very High Energy (VHE) gamma-ray (greater than 1000 GeV) emission for PSR 0531 in 1982-1983 exhibits a narrow peak which is coincident with the main pulse at other wavelengths. Evidence is adduced for an origin of the observed effects in counts from the direction of the source within the aperture. The narrowness of the main pulse of the VHE gamma-ray light curve, and its coincidence with the radio and optical main pulse, indicate a close coupling between the VHE gamma-ray and radio/optical emissions. The energy spectrum of gamma-rays would according to the presently detected flux show a steepening in the 10-1000 GeV range.
