We observed the Fermi/LAT GRB 160509A (Longo et al., GCN 19403) with the 
AMI Large Array at 15 GHz on 2016 May 23.25 and May 26.21 (UT) as part 
of the 4pisky program. We do not detect any source at the VLA location 
(Alexander et al., GCN 19414), with 3sigma upper limits of 137 uJy and 
152 uJy respectively.

We thank the AMI staff for scheduling these observations. The AMI-GRB 
database is a log of all GRB follow up observations with the AMI, and is 
available at http://4pisky.org/ami-grb/.
