FLAGS: 0x1
MERIT: 0.00
SUN_POSTN: 35.50d {+02h 21m 60s} +14.13d {+14d 07' 48"}

MOON_ILLUM: 58 [%]
GAL_COORDS: 0.45, -0.89 [deg] galactic lon,lat of the burst (or transient)
ECL_COORDS: 267.84, -5.59 [deg] ecliptic lon,lat of the burst (or transient)
COMMENTS: SWIFT Figure-of-Merit decision.
COMMENTS: This was of sufficient merit to become the new Automated Target;
COMMENTS: but if the Current PPT has a greater merit, then we will not request a slew.
COMMENTS: This matches a source in the ground catalog: SAX J1750.8-2900, delta=0.031 [deg].
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 matches a source in the on-board catalog.
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 trigger occurred at longitude,latitude = 176.63,14.09 [deg].
