The H76(alpha) and the H66(alpha) recombination lines in MWC 349 have line widths of 50 km/s and line to continuum ratios of 0.03 and 0.09, respectively. Previous radio continuum measurement discrepancies are attributed to a nearby weak extended confusing source, so that there is no evidence of variability at cm wavelengths. The radio line and continuum data can be interpreted self-consistently in terms of a radially symmetric constant velocity wind with the corresponding mass loss rate of 0.00001 solar mass/yr. Possible inconsistencies in reconciling this theory with optical and IR data can be avoided if the wind is fed from an accretion disk.
