COMMENTS:        SWIFT-BAT GRB Lightcurve.  
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 does not match any source in the ground catalog.  
COMMENTS:        This is a GRB.  
COMMENTS:        This trigger occurred during a high background rate interval.  
COMMENTS:        Since the IMAGE_SIGNIF is less than 7 sigma, this is a questionable detection.  
COMMENTS:        This trigger occurred at longitude,latitude = 284.23,-12.41 [deg].  
COMMENTS:        This lightcurve contains more than 50 illegal values -- probably an empty lightcurve.  
COMMENTS:        So the FITS file will have empty/missing rows -- possibly all rows will be missing.  
COMMENTS:        One explanation is a long Image-trigger(>~10min); another is corrupted tlm.
