report:

We have observed the OT of GRB020813 reported by D. Fox et al. (GCN 1470)
with Zeiss-1000 telescope of Special Astrophysical Observatory (SAO). Three
R-band images (exposure of each 303 sec) were taken on August 13 between
18:43 - 19:05 UT.

Using combined image of the 3 exposures and calibration data provided by A.
Henden (GCN 1503) we obtained R magnitude of 19.70 +/- 0.25.

The combined image may be found at http://grb.rssi.ru/GRB020813
