P. B. Cameron (Caltech) and S. R. Kulkarni (Caltech) report:
"We observed the position of SGR 1806-20 with the Very Large Array (VLA)
in A-configuration on 2005 Jan 3.81 UT (t ~ 6.9 days after the giant
flare, GCN #2920). We detect a radio source coincident with the X-ray
position reported by Kaplan et al. (2002, ApJ, 564, 935) at the
approximate freqeucnies and flux densities listed below.
Freq (GHz) Flux density (mJy)

1.43 164
Further observations are planned.
