The detection of radio emission from the position of the luminous X-ray source A1850-08 in the globular cluster NGC6712 is reported. The centroid of the slightly elongated radio source coincides with a previously suggested 20th magnitude stellar optical counterpart. If the radio emission is synchrotron radiation, the minimum energy requirement and magnetic field strength are similar to that found in the radio counterpart to other high-luminosity X-ray sources such as Sco X-1 and Cyg X-3.
