The recent solar eclipse on 24 October 1995 has been observed at
77 MHz using a north-south interferometer system of log-periodic
array at Gauribidanur (near Bangalore, India). During such eclipses,
the radio sources occulted by the moon can be studied with a very 
high angular resolution. The above observation provides position and
strength of two discrete radio sources. We would like to compare the 
occultation results with Yohkoh, H-alpha data and radio measurements
at other frequencies. We request for Yohkoh soft X-ray data before 
and after the eclipse, i.e., 00:30 to 01:30 UT and 07:30 to 08:30 UT 
on 24-Oct-95.
