  Radio source missing contours in the middle

  Welcome to RGZ, nabj!

  This is a #doublelobe, and as you point out, almost a #triple.

  FIRST did detect radio emission from the host (the white IR source), but it wasn't strong enough to merit having contours. This is fairly common for doublelobe/almost triple sources.

  Hope this helps, and happy hunting! 😃
