MASTER-OAFA robotic telescope [1] located in Argentina (OAFA observatory of San Juan National University) was pointed to the SVOM GRB261108.05 (trigger No 1794100398,22h 26m 03.77s , -20d 12m 27.7s, R=0.0799) errorbox 43 sec after notice time and 2388 sec after trigger time at 2026-11-08 01:53:06 UT, with upper limit up to 20.4 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 29 deg. The sun altitude is -30.4 deg.
The galactic latitude b = -57 deg., longitude l = 38 deg.
Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
