The current outburst (ATEL #2919) of a transient X-ray source in Terzan 5, which is plausibly EXO 1745-248 (ATEL #2920; but see ATEL #2933), provides motivation for archival data analysis of EXO 1745-248. In the archival RXTE PCA data of 2000-09-30 (T15:29:24 to T16:24:09; ObsId 50054-06-11-00), an extremely strong kHz QPO at ~690+-23 Hz with a fractional rms amplitude of ~0.08 has been detected. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first high frequency feature detected from EXO 1745-248.
