COMMENTS:        SWIFT SC Slew decision.  
COMMENTS:        SC will immediately slew to this target.  
COMMENTS:        This does not match any source in the ground catalog.  
COMMENTS:           
COMMENTS:        The next comments were copied from the BAT_POS Notice:  
COMMENTS:        This is a rate trigger.  
COMMENTS:        A point_source was found.  
COMMENTS:        This does not match any source in the on-board catalog.  
COMMENTS:        This is a GRB.  
COMMENTS:        Since the IMAGE_SIGNIF is less than 7 sigma, this is a questionable detection.
