[en] G70.68+1.20 is a small shell source, approx.20 arcsec in extent, which has recently been proposed as a very young galactic supernova remnant. 5-GHz observations with the 5-km telescope at a resolution of approx. 2x4 arcsec² (RAxDec) are presented, and discussed together with other radio, optical and IR data. These favour the interpretation that the source is thermal, rather than a young supernova remnant. (author)
