Discrete sources in the southern spiral arm of M 33 have been observed with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope at 49 and 21 cm and the Very Large Array at 6 cm. The three optically confirmed supernova remnants were detected with the WSRT and were found to have nonthermal spectral indices. Two of these SNR were detected with the VLA with a resolution of approximately 1.5 arcsec (5 pc). If it is assumed that these M 33 SNR are similar to galactic SNR, the surface-brightness-diameter relationship proposed by Caswell and Lerche (1979) indicates a distance of 860 + or - 200 kpc for M 33.
