Description We propose further investigations into eleven bursting radio sources. Timing observations are crucial for determining ages and magnetic field strengths and gaining insights into the physics responsible for their unusual emission. Characterisation of the on/off timescales will enable us to model transient survey selection effects and better understand the transient population. Further observations are also crucial for measuring burst properties and for comparison with observations at other wavelengths. This may enable us to determine the physical origin of the bursts and could lead to the identification of a completely new type of emission mechanism.
