Numerical simulation for the type III solar radio bursts in meter wavelengths was made with the electron beam of a high number density enough to emit fundamental radio waves comparable in intensity with the second harmonic.
This requirement is fulfilled if the optical thickness T1 for the negative absorption (amplification) becomes -23 to -25. Since τ1 is roughly proportional to the time-integral of the electron flux of the beam, the intensity of the fundamental waves depends strongly on the parameters which determine the electron flux. Therefore, it is most unlikely that the harmonic pairs of type III bursts of the first and the second harmonics occur frequently with comparable intensities in a wide frequency range, say 200 MHz to 20 MHz, if we take the working hypothesis that the fundamental waves are caused by the scattering of electron plasma waves by thermal ions and amplified during the propagation along the beam.
However, we cannot rule out the possibility that single type III bursts with short durations or group of such bursts are the fundamental waves emitted by the above mechanism, but only if the observed large size of the radio source can be attributed to the radio scattering alone.
