report:
We have imaged the BeppoSAX WFC error box for SAX J2303.2+0015
reported by Muller, et. al. (GCN 474) on the 1.3-m at MDM
with a nonstandard broad R filter. We took four fifteen mintue
exposures in bright moonlight. Our field of view was 1024 x 1024 arc
seconds.
Comparing our images to the DSS/POSS-II plates, we have not found
any new object. However, like Henden et. al. (GCN 490), our observations
did not go deeper than the DSS/POSS-II image. They reached the same
magnitude.
