Abstract
We report on Westerbork 840 MHz, 1.4 and 5 GHz radio observations of the improved IPN-WFC error box of the gamma-ray burst GRB 970111, between 26.4 hours and 120 days after the event onset. In the ~ 13 sq arcmin area defined by the IPN (BATSE and Ulysses) annulus and the published refined BeppoSAX Wide Field Camera error box we detected no steady sources brighter than 0.56 mJy (4 sigma), and no varying radio emission, down to 1.0 mJy (4 sigma). We also report on B, V, R and I band observations of the error box with the 4.2 m William Herschel Telescope at La Palma.
