The source PKS 0208-512 is being monitored by the TANAMI project (http://pulsar.sternwarte.uni-erlangen.de/tanami/) in NIR with the REM telescope (http://www.rem.inaf.it). The source underwent a Gamma Ray flare detected by Fermi-LAT on May 11, 2011 (JD 55690, Atel #3338) when the source was not observable from the ground. We recorded J=15.68 (+/-0.14) on JD 55660 (one month before the Gamma-ray flare) using a sequence of 10 comparison stars taken from the 2MASS for differential photometry: this value is in agreement with the SMARTS data (http://www.astro.yale.edu/smarts/glast/index.html).
