COMMENTS:        SWIFT-BAT GRB Coordinates.  
COMMENTS:        This is a rate trigger.  
COMMENTS:        A point_source was not found.  
COMMENTS:        This matches a source that was purposefully removed from the on-board catalog.  
COMMENTS:        This does not match any source in the ground catalog.  
COMMENTS:        There is a bright star (mag=0.00) 0.00 arcmin from this position.  
COMMENTS:        This is not a GRB.  
COMMENTS:        This trigger occurred during a high background rate interval.  
COMMENTS:           
COMMENTS:        The IMAGE_SIGNIF is VERY LOW, this is very likely not real.  
COMMENTS:        Since the foreground interval count rate is less than the bkg interval (SAA exit), this is a questionable detection.  
COMMENTS:        This trigger occurred at longitude,latitude = 0.00,0.00 [deg].  
COMMENTS:           
COMMENTS:        This trigger occured while the StarTracker had lost lock, so it is possibly bogus.  
COMMENTS:        This Notice was ground-reprocessed from flight-data.  
COMMENTS:        This is an Update Notice -- the RA,Dec values herein supersede the previous BAT_POS Notice.  
COMMENTS:           
COMMENTS:        NOTE: This BAT event is spatially(0.00<0.1deg) and temporally(0.0<100sec) coincident with the SWIFT_BAT event (trignum=355942).  
COMMENTS:          
COMMENTS:        This is manually generated notice to replace the original bogus Position notice.  
COMMENTS:        Many of the fileds are unknown and are filled with zeros.
