We observed SN iPTF13dge (ATEL #5366) with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) at 5.5 and 9GHz, on 2013 September 6.75 UT (approximately 12 days prior to maximum).
We detect the host galaxy, NGC 1762, at both frequencies but find no evidence of emission from the SN. We place a 3\sigma upper limit on the SN emission of 56uJy at 5.5GHz and 9GHz.
We thank the ATCA staff for the scheduling of the ToO observations.
