RS CVn stars are radio emitters but the cause of the radio emission in quiescence is unkown, even as to whether it is thermal or non-thermal. We propose to address this problem by obtaining high S/N data in the infrared using ISO. These data, combined with millimetre and sub-millimetre data we are in the process of getting from the JCMT, will enable us to accurately remove the stellar contribution from the far infrared-millimetre flux distribution, and thus to determine, for the first time, the shape of the flux distribution at the high frequency tail of the radio emission. This information will then immediately resolve the question of the nature of the quiescent radio emission in these systems.
