VLA maps of the field of the gamma-ray transient of 1978 November 19 show a number of radio sources, some of which are candidates for association with the gamma-ray source. The two strongest, linearly polarized (3%) sources may be the outer double of a Sco X-1-like triple radio source, whose central source is inside the error region of the gamma-ray transient. These three radio sources, and a fourth weak source inside the error region for the location of the gamma-ray source, are not coincident with any optical image on ESO prints. The locations of these four radio sources deserve further searches for time variability, proper motion, more Sco X-1-like characteristics, or association with weak X-ray sources or very faint stars.
