The AMI Large Array robotically triggered on the Swift alert for the 
burst of interest GRB 161011A (D'Elia et al., GCN 20023; Pasquale et 
al., GCN 20031) as part of the 4pisky program, and subsequent follow up 
observations were obtained up to 10 days post-burst. Our observations at 
15 GHz on 2016 Oct 11.44, Oct 13.66, Oct 14.60 and Oct 18.56 (UT) do not 
reveal any radio source at the XRT location (Osborne et al., GCN 20026), 
with 3sigma upper limits of 171 uJy, 117 uJy, 108 uJy and 147 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/.
