The AMI Large Array robotically triggered on the Swift alert for GRB
161108A (Beardmore et al., GCN 20145) 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 Nov 08.19, Nov 09.40, Nov
12.35 and Nov 15.36 (UT) do not reveal any radio source at the XRT
location (Beardmore et al., GCN 20147), with 3sigma upper limits of 378
uJy, 284 uJy, 190 uJy and 93 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/.
