Drake et al. (1987) detected, for the first time, radio emission from magnetic Chemically Peculiar stars. They suggested that radio emission is consistent with gyrosynchrotron emission from continuously injected, mildly, relativistic particles trapped in a magnetic equatorial belt.

Leone (1991) showed that it is possible considering that the radio emission comes from magnetic poles and is due to the electron component of the wind flowing along the open field lines. As a consequence Leone (1991) put forward the hypothesis that such emission could be periodically variable.

In order to verify the surmise of a periodic radio emission, the magnetic Chemically Peculiar stars HD 37017 and σ Ori E have been monitored with the VLA at 6 cm.

By combining our data with those obtained by Drake et al. (1987) and Philips & Lestrade (1988), we show that the radio emission from HD 37017 and σ Ori E varies with the rotational period.
