Following the MAXI/GSC detection (ATel #2959) and the Swift/XRT confirmation (ATel #2962) of a new transient MAXI J1409-619, we carried out three RXTE Target of Opportunity (ToO) observations on Oct 22-23, 2010 with a net exposure of 7.5 kseconds.
The averaged PCA flux was 1.12E-10, 1.18E-10, and 1.28E-10 ergs cm^-2 s^-1 in the 2-10 keV band, respectively, corresponding to about 5 mCrab.
