COMMENTS:        SWIFT-BAT GRB Coordinates.  
COMMENTS:        This is an image trigger.  (The RATE_SIGNIF & BKG_{INTEN, TIME, DUR} are undefined.)  
COMMENTS:        A point_source was found.  
COMMENTS:        This matches a source in the on-board catalog.  
COMMENTS:        This matches a source in the ground catalog: 1H_2140+433,   delta=0.306 [deg].  
COMMENTS:        This is not a GRB.  
COMMENTS:        This is an interesting source.  
COMMENTS:        Since the IMAGE_SIGNIF is less than 7 sigma, this is a questionable detection.  
COMMENTS:        This is a RETRACTION of a previous notice that identified this as a GRB -- it is NOT a GRB.  
COMMENTS:        This Notice was ground-reprocessed from flight-data.  
COMMENTS:          
COMMENTS:        This is NOT a GRB.  It is a noise fluctuation in the rate and image domains.
