We observed the Type Ic SN2004gk (IAUC #8446) with the Very Large Array at 8.5 GHz on 2004 Nov 30.57 UT. We do not detect radio emission from the supernova and place a 2-sigma limit of 0.10 mJy at the optical position. Assuming a distance of 15 Mpc to the SN host galaxy (IC 3311), this VLA observation implies an upper limit on the SN2004gk radio luminosity of ~ 10^25 erg/s/Hz, making it four orders of magnitude less radio luminous than SN1998bw and comparable to SN2002ap at a similar epoch.
