In response to the recent increase in X-ray flux of IGR J17091-3624 reported by Swift/BAT (ATel #3144), followed up by Swift/XRT (ATel #3148) and INTEGRAL(ATel #3159), we have conducted radio observations of the X-ray transient IGR J17091-3624 with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (6A configuration) and the new CABB back-end. Data were obtained on 2011 February 9 at both 5.5 and 9 GHz. The preliminary analysis of the ATCA data indicates the presence of a single radio source within the X-ray error circle, with a location of RA(J2000) = 17:09:07.61 and Dec(J2000) = -36:24:25.6 (0.1" positional uncertainty), consistent with the optical position reported in ATel #3150.
