We have conducted temperature and frequency dependent transport measurements in amorphous Nb_x Si_{1-x} samples in the insulating regime. We find a temperature dependent dc conductivity consistent with variable range hopping in a Coulomb glass. The frequency dependent response in the millimeter-wave frequency range can be described by the expression $sigma(omega) \propto (-\imath omega)^alpha$ with the exponent somewhat smaller than one. Our ac results are not consistent with extant theories for the hopping transport.
