The phenomena of slow and super-luminal propagation of electromagnetic waves are considered in the context of a magnetized plasma with undulator induced transparency (UIT). Without the magnetic undulator, the plasma is opaque to the right-hand circularly polarized radiation at the electron cyclotron frequency. Addition of a helical undulator results in the dramatic slowing down of wave propagation. Super-luminal propagation occurs due to the strong coupling between the right- and left-hand circularly polarized waves. We demonstrate that, depending on the detected wave polarization, super-luminal and slow radiation can be observed at the same frequency. Moreover, the super-luminal signal can be controlled by the intensity of the incident signal.
