The AMI Large Array robotically triggered on the Swift alert for GRB
161202A (Sbarufatti et al., GCN 20227) as part of the 4pisky program,
and subsequent follow up observations were obtained up to 10 days
post-burst. Although the data from the first epoch were lost due to
technical problems, our observations at 15 GHz on 2016 Dec 03.93 and Dec
05.77 (UT) do not reveal any radio source at the XRT location (Evans et
al., GCN 20228), with 3sigma upper limits of 200 uJy and 121 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/.
