COMMENTS:        SWIFT-XRT Coordinates.  
COMMENTS:        This matches a source in the BAT ground catalog: HR 1099,   delta=0.001 [deg].  
COMMENTS:        The XRT position is 2.51 arcmin from the BAT position.  
COMMENTS:        There is a bright star (mag=5.71) 0.08 arcmin from the XRT position.  
COMMENTS:        The object found at this position is either a very bright burst or a cosmic ray hit.  
COMMENTS:        Examine the XRT Image to differentiate (CRs are much more compact); see examples at:
