Abstract For the Uranus smooth low frequency emission (SLF) two different (and contradictory) source locations (one polar, one equatorial) have been reported in the literature. Visibility studies show that polar source locations within a limited magnetic longitude range can be singled out, whereas a polar source distributed along the whole range of magnetic longitudes is compatible with observations. In this study we have computed intensity contours for comparison with the observed emission. Profiles obtained by a geometrical beaming model favor the equatorial source location.
