We observed the position of GRB 250114A (Klingler et al., GCN 38927) starting at 2025-01-16 15:53UT for 7.5 hours with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), as part of the “PanRadio GRB” Large ATCA follow-up programme C3542 (PI. Anderson).
We detect a radio source at the reported position (Klingler et al., GCN 38927) of the afterglow with a preliminary flux density of 70uJy/beam. The rms noise in our observation is 13 uJy/beam at 7GHz.
We thank the CSIRO Space and Astronomy staff for supporting these observations.
