Monard adds that nothing is visible at the location of SN 2005Q on a Digitized Sky Survey image (limiting red mag 20.5). Boles remarks that nothing is visible at the location of SN 2005R on Digitized Sky Survey plates from 1992 (limiting red mag 21.0), 1990 (limiting blue mag 20.5), or 1983 (limiting visual mag 18.5); he adds that comparison with the Konkoly Observatory plate of the foreground variable designated 1985J (cf. IAUC 4059) shows that 2005R is 15" southwest of 1985J. Li provides the following position end figures for SN 2005U: 33s.13, 41".3. Mattila et al. note that their offset above for SN 2005U is with respect to the K_s-band nucleus A of the luminous infrared galaxy Arp 299 (the tabulated magnitude above for 2005U is also in the K_s band); they estimate preliminary J-K = +0.4 ± 0.5 for 2005U, adding that the color indicates modest extinction.
