MASTER-Amur robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Blagoveshchensk State Pedagogical University) was pointed to the Swift GRB 220306B ( R. Caputo et al., GCN 31697) errorbox  3820 sec after notice time and 3846 sec after trigger time at 2022-03-06 19:19:44 UT, with upper limit up to  17.1 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 55 deg. The sun  altitude  is -26.5 deg. 

MASTER-Kislovodsk robotic telescope  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, Kislovodsk Solar Station of Pulkovo observatory) was pointed to the Swift GRB 220306B errorbox  4093 sec after notice time and 4118 sec after trigger time at 2022-03-06 19:24:16 UT, with upper limit up to  17.9 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 61 deg. The sun  altitude  is -44.4 deg. 

The galactic latitude b =  9 deg., longitude l = 121 deg.
