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 240119A ( "The Fermi GBM team, GCN 35583) errorbox  24476 sec after notice time and 24484 sec after trigger time at 2024-01-20 00:17:12 UT, with upper limit up to  19.8 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 52 deg. The sun  altitude  is -33.6 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -22 deg., longitude l = 299 deg.
