Abstract
We summarize the main results of a long-term VLA monitoring of several hard X-ray emitters in the Galactic Bulge. Most of the observed targets correspond to sources detected by the GRANAT satellite. Our main findings include the discovery of new radio counterparts to some of them. The sources identified at radio wavelengths are: GRS 1734-292, GX 354-0 and Terzan 1. The VLA positions obtained are accurate at the arcsec level and represent an excellent starting point to search for optical and near infrared counterparts. Imaging observations at these wavelengths have been conducted using different ESO telescopes. As a result, we were so far successful in identifying the optical/infrared counterpart to GRS 1734-292, as well as a likely infrared candidate for GX 354-0.
