We have observed the entire error box for GRB021016

on two nights.  Comparing against the DSS and USNO-A2.0,
no new object is seen inside the error box.  The
FITS images are available through the AAVSO.  CV
indicates unfiltered (clear), V-band zeropoint; CR
indicates unfiltered (clear), R-band zeropoint.
