MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) started inspect of the Fermi GRB 200803A ( Fermi GBM team, GCN 28196) errorbox  47 sec after notice time and 74 sec after trigger time at 2020-08-03 03:35:40 UT, with upper limit up to  18.4 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 50 deg. The sun  altitude  is -23.6 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -37 deg., longitude l = 330 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here: 
https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=1412844

We obtain a following upper limits.
