The AMI Large Array robotically triggered on the Swift alert for GRB
170906C (Siegel et al., GCN 21826) as part of the 4pisky program. Our
observation at 15 GHz on 2017 Sep 06.55 (UT) does not reveal any radio
source at the XRT location (Evans et al., GCN 21831), with a 3sigma
upper limit of 156 uJy. Further follow up observations have not been
possible due to telescope maintenance.
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/.
