Very interesting! Looks like a nearby galaxy. The radio is very interesting too. Will follow this up in the morning.

I posted a similar question on this image before I found this chat topic. Will be interested to hear 42jkb's results.

It's a really big, irregular galaxy: http://cas.sdss.org/dr6/en/tools/chart/chart.asp?ra=187.64&dec=41.65 (set image size to 1024x1024 to enjoy a larger view). It's a beauty!
