MASTER Global Robotic Net ( http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010,Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)
observed S190814bv (LVC GCN 25324) starting 2019-08-14 22:42:29 (Lipunov 
et al. GCN 25322, GCN25339).

We analyzed candidates identified in DECam images by the DECam-GROWTH team (Andreoni et al. GCN25362)
in MASTER-Kislovodsk, MASTER-Tavrida, MASTER-SAAO,MASTER-IAC,MASTER-OAFA databases
and in VIZIER.

1) 11.736272 -25.376851
There is PanSTARRs optical source in 0.14" with m=20.2(r) and sources in the halo of NGC253 (Bailin+, 2011)
http://vizier.u-strasbg.fr/viz-bin/VizieR?-source=&-out.add=_r&-out.add=_RAJ%2C_DEJ&-sort=_r&-to=&-out.max=20&-meta.ucd=2&-meta.foot=1&-c=11.736272+-25.376851&-c.rs=5
MASTER observed this area since 2015-09-15 23:55:17(mlim=20.2),
there was no automatically detected sources brighter mlim in history,
and now mlim~18 (full Moon in 38deg., 30 deg. obj_altitude).

2) 10.388877 -23.742207
There is OT with unfiltered m=18.2 on 2018-08-10 01:07:54.917UT in MASTER database

3) 11.548253 -22.118828
There is no OT up to 21.4 (2018-11-02 23:59:06UT) in MASTER database, 
in VIZIER there is  WISE AGN candidate (catalogs Assef+, 2018) in 2.9"

4)14.050077 -25.490123
There is optical surce in MASTER images, for ex. (2015-09-15 23:55:17) with  unfiltered m~21 (mlim=21.5)

there are 2 PanSTARRs sources in 1.4 and 2.1"
http://vizier.u-strasbg.fr/viz-bin/VizieR?-source=&-out.add=_r&-out.add=_RAJ%2C_DEJ&-sort=_r&-to=&-out.max=20&-meta.ucd=2&-meta.foot=1&-c=14.050077+-25.490123&-c.rs=5

5)13.968328 -25.783281
There is marginally seen source with m<~mlim=20.0 on 2019-08-15 00:12:22
and m_OT~20.5 on 2015-09-15 23:55:17UT (mlim=21.5)
There is USNO-B1 source in 1.2" with R2=21.3, B2=21.0 and PanSTARRs source with r=21.2

6)13.273165 -24.360753
There is a source in our images.
MASTER automatic photometry is the following
Date_TimeUT           unfiltered_m
2019-05-12 03:17:15   19.2
2018-11-03 00:49:21   19.6
2015-01-11 19:31:53   19.2

7)22.265283 -32.705156
There is marginally seen optical source at 2015-09-10 01:36:50Ut (the best summ with mlim=20.8)
with m_OT~20.5 in MASTEr database.
Also in 2" in VIZIEr database there is a source in USNO-B1, PanSTARR(2.38"), GALEX (3")

The observation and reduction of LVC error-box will be continued.
