    At 10:03:40 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and
    located GRB 210807 ***A*** (trigger=1064221).  Swift slewed immediately to the burst.
    The BAT on-board calculated location is 
    RA, Dec 76.677, +58.245 which is 
       RA(J2000) = 05h 06m 43s
       Dec(J2000) = +58d 14' 43"
    with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including 
    systematic uncertainty).  The BAT light curve showed a [**double-peaked**]
    structure with a duration of about TTT sec.  The peak count rate
    was ~1599 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~65 sec after the trigger.
