The  long GRB 110119A (Swift/BAT trigger #442978 ; Troja et al., GCN 11581
; Goad et al., GCN 11582, Baumgartner et al., GCN 11584 ; D'Elia et al., GCN 11586)
triggered the Suzaku Wide-band  All-sky Monitor (WAM) which covers an
energy range of 50 keV - 5 MeV at 22:20:58.220 UT (=T0).

The observed light curve shows a multi-peaked structure
starting at T0-7.5s, ending at T0+217.5s with a duration  (T90) of 206 (+/- 10) seconds.
The fluence in 100 - 1000 keV was 1.21 (+/- 0.14) x 10^-5 erg/cm^2.
The 1-s peak flux measured from T0+34s was 1.60 (+/- 0.16) photons/cm^2/s in the same
energy range.

Preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum from T0-7.5s to
T0+217.5s is well fitted by a single power-law with a photon index
of 1.97 (+0.20, -0.18) (chi^2/d.o.f = 27.14/25).
All the quoted errors are at statistical 90% confidence level,
