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

    The host for the emission is SDSS J150440.06+071109.6, which has a z_ph=0.232 ± 0.0687. This object has recorded First flux emission, and an ALLWISE reference, ALLWISE J150440.05+071109.7. As per the ARG comments left, this object:

    looks more like a QSO, also based on WISE colors; z_ph=0.23 seems low, could be up to 1.0.
