The observations began at zenith distance = 32 deg. The sun altitude is -48.2 deg. The galactic latitude b = -7 deg., longitude l = 243 deg. Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here: https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=3152151 We obtain a following upper limits.
