report:

"We have just obtained several R-band exposures centred at
the GRB 011030 error box (Gandolfi et al. GCN#1119) starting
at 13:40 UT on 30 Oct 2001 with the  1.0-m telescope at Nainital
(India) and at 18:05 UT at the 1.23-m telescope at the
German-Spanish Calar Alto Observatory (CAHA).  A preliminary
analysis of the images reveal no optical counterpart within
a 5' radius down to R = 21 when comparing with the DSS-2 R-band
chart. Further R- and I-band observations are in progress."
