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 GRB200224.21 (trigger No 604213554,11h 51m 36.00s , -28d 52m 12.0s, R=3.08) errorbox  548 sec after notice time and 579 sec after trigger time at 2020-02-24 05:15:28 UT, with upper limit up to  20.2 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 13 deg. The sun  altitude  is -48.7 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 32 deg., longitude l = 288 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:

[GCN OPS NOTE(24feb20): This is the fourth Circular in the sequence of 8 circulars
which were all (except this one) labeled A because of the sequence assigner being offline. 
In the normal lettering method this would be burst B.]
