Replace ??? in draft Circular with correct value. =========== Draft Upper Limit Circular ======== GRB 231230A: Swift/UVOT Upper Limits N. P. M. Kuin (UCL-MSSL) and M. J. Moss (GSFC) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 231230A ***???*** s after the BAT trigger (Moss et al., GCN Circ. 35436). No optical afterglow consistent with the XRT position *** POSITION REFERENCE is GCN_Circulars-35441 *** is detected in the initial UVOT exposures. Preliminary 3-sigma upper limits using the UVOT photometric system (Breeveld et al. 2011, AIP Conf. Proc. 1358, 373) for the first finding chart (FC) exposure and subsequent exposures are: Filter T_start(s) T_stop(s) Exp(s) Mag u_FC 304 554 246 >19.7 white 586 1531 206 >20.2 v 1042 1235 39 >18.2 b 560 1681 58 >19.4 u 304 554 246 >19.7 w1 686 1632 78 >18.7 m2 5469 5594 123 >21.5 w2 611 1731 39 >18.5 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.015 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).
