The invention provides a dielectric resonator oscillator DR, especially for transmission devices whose oscillating frequency may take several values. The oscillator uses two interfering conductors 30 and 31 switched so that they may or may not form a metal plane close to the dielectric resonator DR in order to vary the frequency of the oscillator while using a single resonator. The interfering conductors 30 and 31 are located in the cavity CAV close to the resonator DR and the switching means may or may not establish an electrical contact between the said interfering conductors 30 and 31.
