    At 17:50:36 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and
    located GRB 210807 ***A*** (trigger=1064361).  Swift slewed immediately to the burst.
    The BAT on-board calculated location is 
    RA, Dec 83.717, +22.210 which is 
       RA(J2000) = 05h 34m 52s
       Dec(J2000) = +22d 12' 36"
    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 ~867 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~4 sec after the trigger.
