We observed Type IIn supernova SN 2008cg (CBET 1366) with the VLA at 8.46 GHz frequency band on 2008 July 01.17 UT. We do not detect any radio emission from the supernova and the peak radio flux density at the supernova position is 7+/-38 uJy. We thank VLA staff for making this observation possible.
