MASTER  robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, 200
mm, FOV=8 square degrees (testing mode)) and  Very Wide Field Camera (D=50 mm, 
1000 square  degrees, 11 Mpx, 36" per pix, mounted on telescope) located at 
Blagoveschensk   was responted to the  GRB 100206A (Swift BAT  alert, 
TRIGGER_NUM: 411412, Krimm et al, GCN CIRC 10376) 73 sec after first 
Notice time and 90 s after the GRB time.
Unfortunatelly, the main telescope camera was not operating due to 
technical problem at this time.

We have a number images with 5 s exposition from Very Wide Field Camera.
The image limit from Very Wide Filed Camera ~11.5.
