MASTER-OAFA robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Argentina (OAFA observatory of San Juan National University) started inspect of the Fermi GRB190422.96 ( 12h 34m 43.20s , -60d 55m 12.00s, R=4.87) errorbox  12 sec after trigger time at 2019-04-22 22:58:36 UT, with upper limit up to  17.6 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenit distance = 50 deg. The sun  altitude  is -11.6 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -60 deg., longitude l = 98 deg.
