Our recent broadband microwave and RF spectroscopic measurements of two-dimensional electron systems at Landau level filling v greater than or similar to 1 are reviewed. Resonances in the spectrum of diagonal conductivity in many discrete regions of v allow us to identify and study the pinned electron solids. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
