ARG0000whi - very slightly #bent #overedge #doublelobe disk host !

    The candidate host is certainly not an elliptical!

    Boilerplate: SDSS image per http://skyservice.pha.jhu.edu/DR10/ImgCutout/getjpeg.aspx, FIRST (red) contours derived from the FITS file produced using SkyView with Python code described in this RGZ Talk thread. Image center is the galaxy SDSS J102505.47+443015.4, near the ARG image (ARG0000whi; J2000.0). "z_ph" is an SDSS photometric redshift of the galaxy in the center.

    Now I see this overlay, I would not rule out the IR-only source at RA: 10:25:05.79 DEC: +44:29:47.1 which seems better-positioned between the lobes but I remember the NVSS emission made it look bent and the disk galaxy looking better-suited when I did a rough contour overlay in Skyview. FIRST is only showing the hotspots so it might not be the best guide in this case?
