center (Kozyrev et al.  GCN 33425) at position  Levan et al., GCN 33439 
31 hours after  trigger (22 30 43UT 1800 sec) ~20.2 (Unfiltered). The 
position accuracity 
is about ~ 1 pix =2".

But there is the Gaia star 3".3 offset with same magnitude.


No object in MPC.
The reduction will be continued.
