Using the data set from T-240 to T+962 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 081011 (trigger #331332)
(Grupe, et al., GCN Circ. 8355).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 220.363, 33.548 deg which is 
   RA(J2000)  =  14h 41m 27.2s 
   Dec(J2000) = +33d 32' 54.4" 
with an uncertainty of 2.3 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 100%.
 
The mask-weighted light curve shows two peaks around T+2 and T+9 sec.  
There is a hint of a weak extended emission until T+60 sec.  
T90 (15-350 keV) is 9 +- 2 sec (estimated error including systematics).
 
The time-averaged spectrum from T-0.9 to T+9.0 sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model.  The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
1.47 +- 0.28.  The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 1.6 +- 0.3 x 10^-7 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+1.06 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 0.4 +- 0.1 ph/cm2/sec.  All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
