GRB 010222: radio counterpart

   The following message is from GCN No. 968:

GRB 010222: BeppoSAX NFI observations
TITLE:   GCN GRB OBSERVATION REPORT
NUMBER:  968
SUBJECT: GRB010222, radio observations
DATE:    01/02/22 21:13:28 GMT
FROM:    Dale A. Frail at NRAO  <dfrail@nrao.edu>

E. Berger (Caltech) and D. A. Frail (NRAO) report on behalf of a
larger collaboration:

"On 2001 February 22.62 UT we used the VLA to observe a field centered
at the position of the optical transient reported by Henden
(GCN#961,GCN#962) in the error circle of GRB010222 (GCN#959,
GCN#960). At 22 GHz we detect a radio source coincident with the
optical source. A preliminary reduction gives a flux of 0.70+/-0.15
mJy. Further observations are planned."
