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) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 230307A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 33405) errorbox  1 days 7520 sec after notice time and 1 days 7572 sec after trigger time at 2023-03-08 17:50:19 UT, with upper limit up to  19.0 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 46 deg. The sun  altitude  is -10.1 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -37 deg., longitude l = 292 deg.
