What's going on here (ARG0001fuu)?

    That zsp 0.082 SDSS J080938.88+345537.2 is a host is pretty clear:

    In FIRST, there's faint radio emission to the N and S (as well as a second #compact a little to the SE of the strongest emission; more on this later in the post):

    In NVSS this faint emission is much more extensive and lop-sided: more on the N, and a faint "tail" that goes a long way (it may not be related, however):

    Finally, what is the host of the compact emission a little to the SE? Is it, perhaps zph 0.159 ± 0.0451 SDSS J080938.92+345526.2? That would be very strange, wouldn't it?
