    But can't decide where's the host. Maybe a long time ago someone already found it ?
    Thanks for the help !!

    This is an excellent example of an #overedge and possible #giant source. I would choose no infrared source and then in the comments add #overedge that way we can distinguish between large radio sources and those with no host.

    What some other do is look at the SDSS image and overlay the NVSS or FIRST image on top to locate the host. This is an extra step that you may or may not want to do and that is OK.
