Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry
downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 111022B (trigger #506074)
(Holland, et al., GCN Circ. 12472). The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 108.927, 49.663 deg which is
   RA(J2000)  =  07h 15m 42.4s
   Dec(J2000) = +49d 39' 45.9"
with an uncertainty of 2.0 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 82%.

The mask-weighted light curve shows a multi-peak structure starting at
~T-50 sec and ending at ~T+60 sec. T90 (15-350 keV) is 79.1 +/- 13.5
sec (estimated error including systematics).

The time-averaged spectrum from T-47.84 to T+53.80 sec is best fit by a
simple
power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
1.59 +/- 0.20.  The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 9.0 +/- 1.2 x 10^-07
erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+49.54 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 0.4 +/- 0.3 ph/cm2/sec.  All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
