A transient X-ray source was detected in scanning observations in the Galactic bulge region in 1990 March (source D in Yamauchi and Koyama 1990, PASJ, 42, L83). Using scan data obtained with Ginga in 1990 March and 1990 April and the revised satellite attitude data, the source position was re-determined. The revised sky position is in agreement with that of a recurrent soft X-ray transient source 1RXS J170930.2-263927=XTE J1709-267. The spectrum is similar to those obtained with RXTE and Beppo SAX, while the flux in 1990 March is estimated to be about 100 mCrab. The Ginga results indicate that 1RXS J170930.2-263927 was in outburst in 1990 March-April before the detection in the ROSAT all-sky survey in 1990 August.
