The large-scale instability of spatially inhomogeneous electron streams flowing across a magnetic field in quasisteady profiles corresponding to collisionless shocks or nonlinear waves is analyzed. The linear theory of the large-scale macroscopic instability of direct magnetosonic solitons is studied in detail. Oblique perturbations of the whistler type should be most important. The perturbation growth rates and wavelengths are found as functions of the Mach number.
