Solar p-modes with degrees l = 30-60 were observed from Big Bear Observatory as surface velocity and surface brightness oscillations, the former at a depth of tau (5000) roughly 0.05, and the latter using a 10 A bandpass filter centered at 6687 A. Comparison of the two observations shows that the brightness/velocity oscillation power ratio for these low-l modes depends only weakly on frequency between 2 and 4 mHz. This result contradicts a similar measurement recently published by Jimenez et al. (1988), who find nearly an order of magnitude of variation in the p-mode power ratio over the same frequency range for modes with l = 1 or less. Since it is unlikely that the different l-values measured would yield a different power ratio, the cause of the discrepancy remains unknown.
