MASTER II  robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru) 
located in Kislovodsk was pointed to the  GRB110120.67 24 sec s after 
notice time and 63 sec after GRB time at 2011-01-20 16:00:42.913 UT. On 
our first (10s exposure) set we haven`t found optical transient  within 
FERMI LAT error-box (ra=04 22 36 dec=-18 21 00 r=0.016667).
The 5-sigma upper limit has been about 13 mag.
