report:

The 25cm robotic telescope FRAM-ORM at La Palma (Spain)
reacted robotically to the alert of GRB200122A (Sonbas et
al, GCNC 26844), obtaining a series of 20s unfiltered images
starting at 01:41:33.0UT, i.e. 32.6s post trigger.

We do not detect any new source in comparison to USNO-B2.0
catalog neither in single images (3-sigma limit R>~17.4)
nor in a combined 40x20s frame (mean exp time 551s post
trigger, 3-sigma limit R>~19.3).
