Poonam Chandra (NRAO/UVA) and Dale A. Frail (NRAO) report on
behalf of the Caltech-NRAO-Carnegie GRB Collaboration:

"We used the Very Large Array to observe the field of view toward GRB
080205 (GCN 7250) at a frequency of 8.46 GHz on 2008 February 6.13 UT. The
GRB is undetected and the peak radio flux at the SWIFT-XRT position (GCN
7252) is 30 +/- 41 uJy.

The National Radio Astronomy Observatory is a facility of the National
Science Foundation operated under cooperative agreement by Associated
