Frail (NRAO) report on behalf of a larger\ncollaboration:\n\n\"We have used the Very Large Array (VLA) to image a field centered on\nthe 2MASS galaxy suggested by Fox (GCN #9134) to be a possible host of\nthe short duration burst 090417A (GCN # 9133, 9138). The VLA observed\nthe burst at a frequency of 8.46 GHz on two epochs, April 17.92 UT and\nApril 18.90 UT. Within a radius of 1.5 arcmin around the 2MASS galaxy\nthere are no radio sources detected at either epoch to a 4-sigma limit\nof 104 uJy and 84 uJy, respectively. No further observations are planned.\n\nThe National Radio Astronomy Observatory is a facility of the National\nScience Foundation operated under cooperative agreement by Associated\nUniversities, Inc.\""
