A. M. Soderberg (Caltech) and D. A. Frail (NRAO) report on behalf
of the Caltech/NRAO/Carnegie GRB Collaboration:

"We observed the field of GRB 041219 (GCN #2866) with the
Very Large Array on 2004 Dec 20.14 UT (t ~ 1.1 days after the
burst).  At 8.5 GHz we detect a radio source coincident with
the optical afterglow reported by Blake & Bloom (GCN #2870)
with a flux density of 0.45 +- 0.05 mJy.  Further observations
are planned."
