Hi Adam, Chris,
Just looking at the GRB all sky monitor page and the only GRB in the
last 7 days is at -42 dec. It is on the wrong side of the sky I think
and probably too old to detect an afterglow (18 March event), but if
you get a chance, maybe worth a poke for half an hour if you feel
inclined. Coords are:
03 14 09; -42 57 42 (J2000)
You will need a nearby phase reference source. PKS 0332-403 (in
ATCAT) might be ok, but is ~4.5 deg away.
Cheers, Steven
