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) was pointed to the Swift GRB220806.76 (trigger No 1119268,17h 23m 29.52s , -26d 01m 22.8s, R=0.05) errorbox  30 sec after notice time and 47 sec after trigger time at 2022-08-06 18:09:26 UT, with upper limit up to  17.0 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 13 deg. The sun  altitude  is -26.5 deg. 

The galactic latitude b =  5 deg., longitude l =  0 deg.
