MASTER robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, 200 mm,
FOV=8 square degrees (testing mode)) and Very Wide Field Camera (D=50
mm, 1000 square degrees, 11 Mpx, 36" per pix, mounted on telescope)
located at Blagoveschensk was ponted to the GRB 100526A (L. Vetere et
al. gcn 10797) 21 min after burst. For the unknown reason any of our
observatories hasn't received socket alert on this burst (we have
received only auxiliary packages).
We have a number images with 60-s exposition.
We haven't found optical transient within Swift-XRT error-box.
The 3-sigma unfiltred upper limit has been about 17.0 mag on single and
18.2 mag on 10 images coadd.
