S106-IRS4 is the brightest near IR source associated with the S106 bipolar nebula. It is located exactly at the centre of the bipolar structure, inside the narrow gap of emission between the two radio lobes. It is also a weak radio source. An analysis of the near IR photometric measurements and of the radio fluxes suggests the presence of an ionized envelope produced by mass loss of the early type star which is responsible for the ionization of the nebula (Felli et al. 1984).
