    At 21:10:37 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and
    located GRB 230322 ***A*** (trigger=1161127).  Swift slewed immediately to the burst.
    The BAT on-board calculated location is 
    RA, Dec 16.565, -47.729 which is 
       RA(J2000) = 01h 06m 16s
       Dec(J2000) = -47d 43' 42"
    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 ~1292 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~-1 sec after the trigger.
