Poonam Chandra and Alicia Soderberg report on behalf of a larger collaboration: We observed a Type IIn supernova SN 2008B (CBET 1194) with the Very Large Array (VLA) in the 8.46 GHz band on 2008, January 23.5 UT. The observations were taken for total duration of one hour in the VLA B-configuration. We do not detect any radio emission at the supernova position (CBET 1194). The flux density at the supernova position is 60 ± 28 uJy.
