Detailed interferometric radio observations of solar activity allow us to constrain the dynamics of high-energy electron beams accelerated in flares and coronal mass ejections (CME). We have studied in detail the small-scale solar radio bursts, which accompanied one of the three homologous solar eruptions that originated from the western solar limb on November 04, 2015. We have used interferometric observations from the Murchison Widefield Array to image the multi-frequency emission in several radio channels between 80 and 300 MHz with 1-second resolution and 20 arcsec-pixels. The event began with a strong type II radio burst, and was followed by a separation of the emission into stationary and moving sources, the latter clearly related to the propagating CME structure. The observations show simultaneous multi-frequency flickering of intensity along a persistent off-limb structure related to the CME-driven shock wave, connecting the stationary and moving sources. This flickering emission persisted for more than 30 minutes. We present an analysis of its dynamics, its relation to the CME flux rope, the expected magnetic configurations, and electron beam properties. These observations provide valuable information about the evolution and kinematics of the CME in its early stages.
