We continue our search for extragalactic Carbon Radio Recombination Lines (CRRL) in M82 with the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR; van Haarlem et al.2013). The goal of our project is to determine the physical conditions of the cold neutral gas in this object, for which low frequency radio recombination lines can provide a sensitive probe.
