We began to observe GRB 241206B (Saccardi et al., GCN 38450), with 50cm telescope (GWAC-F50A) at Xinglong station, China, at 2024-12-06T15:38:26.8 (UT), about 19.7 min after the burst.
With the initial observation with exposure time of 50 sec, no any uncatalogued source was detected in our image down to a limit magnitude of 17.0 mag in R band comparing to several nearby USNO B1.0 stars.
We acknowledge the excellent support from observation assistant Yangtong Zheng and Winlong Dong.
