    Looks like a one sided source, though there is a hint of the lobe to the north ( very small compared to southern lobe ) Host is SDSS J151131.38+071507.0

    In the FIRST image it looks like a triple

    Despite it being a strong source, I could not find the ARG ID for the FIRST object that is associated with very dead and red z_sp 0.045 SDSS J151131.38+071507.0 😦

    However, everything else is just as Dolorous Edd wrote:

    Here's the host:

    Boilerplate: SDSS image per http://skyservice.pha.jhu.edu/DR10/ImgCutout/getjpeg.aspx, FIRST (red) and NVSS (cyan) contours derived from the FITS files produced using SkyView with Python code described in this RGZ Talk thread. Image center is the galaxy SDSS J151131.38+071507.0 (J2000.0). "z_sp" is an SDSS spectroscopic redshift of the galaxy in the center.

    Published by Bagchi (NVSS shows a much larger jet/lobe to the south) - 400kpc one sided on large scale. very unusual.
