The AMI Large Array robotically triggered on the Swift alert for GRB 
161214B (D'Avanzo et al., GCN 20257) 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 Dec 14.76, Dec 16.76, Dec 
18.75 and Dec 21.74 (UT) do not reveal any radio source at the XRT 
location (Goad et al., GCN 20264), with 3sigma upper limits of 96 uJy, 
87 uJy, 85 uJy and 104 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/.
