Ulysses URAP observations of escaping Jovian continuum radiation show a persistent 10 h variation in amplitude which can best be explained by a clock-like model. The continuum shows a moderately strong preference to reach maximum intensity when the 0-degrees-90-degrees System III longitude sector faces the Sun.
