J. Kelemen (kelemen at konkoly.hu) on behalf of the GRB OT observing program
at the Konkoly Observatory.

Starting on the night 24/03/2015 02:48 UT we observed the field GRB 150323B
(J. R. Cummings GCN 17619Loading...
 
  ). We imaged the X-ray positions published by P.
D'Avanzo et al. GCN 17634Loading...
 
 .
 On the coadded R band images (total exposure = 1500 sec) we found marginal
optical sources on the positions coincide with soure 1 and source 2.
