Frail report on behalf of the\nCaltech-NRAO-CARA GRB collaboration:\n\n\"On 2002, February 1.03 UT we used the VLA at 8.46 GHz to observe the\nposition of the peculiar Type Ib/c SN2002ap in M74 (IAUC 7810 and 7811).\nWe detect a radio source with a flux density of 375+/-30 microJy within 1\"\nof the optical position of this supernova at coordinates (J2000):\nRA=01:36:23.920, DEC=15:45:12.867, with an uncertainty of approximately 10\nmilliarcsec in both coordinates. The optical spectrum of this SN is\nsimilar to that of SN1998bw, and there is some evidence that SN2002ap is a\nyounger and/or more energetic version of SN1998bw (IAUC 7810).  In view of\nthe peculiar properties of this object, the radio detection, and the\npossible connection of SN 1998bw with GRB 980425, we urge further\nobservations at all wavelengths.\"\n\nThis message may be cited.",
