Berkeley), and P. Schady (University of Bath) report on behalf of a larger
collaboration:
"The declination of the VLA radio counterpart of GRB 240809A given in GCN
37158 is incorrect. The correct source position is:
RA (J2000) = 15h 50m 10.5s
Dec (J2000) = -02d 19' 3.4"
with a (statistical) uncertainty of 0.2" in each coordinate. We apologize
for any confusion caused."
