MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) was pointed to the LAT GRB200803.15 (trigger No 200803149,20h 45m 09.60s , -63d 04m 48.0s, R=0.46) errorbox 107 sec after trigger time at 2020-08-03 03:36:13 UT, with upper limit up to  18.4 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 54 deg. The sun  altitude  is -23.5 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -37 deg., longitude l = 333 deg.
