TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 12146 SUBJECT: GRB 110709A: Konkoly observations DATE: 11/07/11 00:52:33 GMT FROM: Janos Kelemen at Konkoly Obs/Hungary J. Kelemen,(Konkoly Obs.) on behalf of the GRB OT observing program at the Konkoly Observatory. We observed the field of GRB 110709A (trigger=456939) S. T. Holland et al. (GCN 12118) using the enhanced Swift-XRT position provided by P. A. Evans. (GCN 12119) with a 60/90 cm Schmidt telescope located at the Mountain Station of the Konkoly Observatory. We coadded 6 red sensitive CCD images without filter with 300 sec exposure time each. On the coadded frame we checked the position RA (J2000) = 15:55:33.86 Dec (J2000) = +40:55:28.0 provided by J. P. Osborne et al. (GCN 12123). We found a faint marginaly visible source at the position RA (J2000) = 15:55:33.96 Dec (J2000) = +40:55:27.7 within the error circle of the astrometricaly corrected X-ray position. Based on nearby UCAC-3 stars the brightness of this object in the R band is 21.4 +/- 0.2 magnitude. Time from the trigger magnitude Band ---------------------------------------- 27374 sec 21.4 +/- 0.2 R
