    At 18:06:53 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and
    located GRB 240511 ***A*** (trigger=1227767).  Swift slewed immediately to the burst.
    The BAT on-board calculated location is 
    RA, Dec 336.664, +8.514 which is 
       RA(J2000) = 22h 26m 39s
       Dec(J2000) = +08d 30' 49"
    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 ~4411 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~20 sec after the trigger.
