Recurrent active regions related to metric radio continuum emissions and the interplanetary magnetic sector structure

Active heliographic longitudes at the sun are investigated by using the observational data for long-lived metric continuum noise sources. It is shown that, for the period from 1963 to 1969, the number of such longitudes was four in general and these longitudes were very stable for this radio activity since 1963. A discussion is given on the relationship between those longitudes and the sector structure of the interplanetary magnetic field
