    At 16:14:21 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and
    located GRB 230414 ***A*** (trigger=1164180).  Swift slewed immediately to the burst.
    The BAT on-board calculated location is 
    RA, Dec 181.071, +53.127 which is 
       RA(J2000) = 12h 04m 17s
       Dec(J2000) = +53d 07' 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 ~757 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~5 sec after the trigger.
