    The contour overlay image in this post was created from sources, and using methods, described in this RGZ Talk
    thread.

    The host for this emission could be from three possible sources.

    The first could be SDSS J080106.96+175845.2, which has a z_sp=0.144 +/-0.00003. There are a number of radio references in NED for this galaxy, and there is an ALLWISE reference, ALLWISE J080106.96+175845.0.

    The second host of the emission could be SDSS J080107.19+175849.7, which has a z_sp=0.140 ± 0.00002, and a radio reference in SIMBAD, and an ALLWISE reference, ALLWISE J080107.20+175849.8.

    A third host could be SDSS J080106.55+175854.9, which is listed as a star. and has radio references in NED and SIMBAD. SIMBAD records this object as a galaxy. There is no recorded redshift. If this object is the host of the emission, this could explain the offset noted in the classification comments left.
