Scientific paper

We report optical and radio observations of GT 2318+620, a previously proposed variable radio source at low galactic latitude. With the information available more than a decade ago, this object was considered to be a low-mass X-ray binary with radio jets. However, the galactic nature of GT 2318+620 was never confirmed. The new data presented here provide substantial evidence to rule out a galactic origin and point towards identification as an active extragalactic source.
