    At 05:35:02 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and
    located GRB 161122 ***A*** (trigger=723365).  Swift slewed immediately to the burst.
    The BAT on-board calculated location is 
    RA, Dec 299.402, +35.062 which is 
       RA(J2000) = 19h 57m 37s
       Dec(J2000) = +35d 03' 45"
    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 ~1335 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~6 sec after the trigger.
