We report on a further analysis of Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer observations of the new bursting transient in the globular cluster Terzan 5 (ATels #2919, #2920, #2922, #2924, #2929, #2932, #2933, #2935, #2937, #2939, #2946, #2952, #2958), identified with CXOG1b J174804.8-244648 (ATel #2974), aka IGR J17480-2446 (ATel #2940). We identified a total of 202 X-ray bursts from this source between 2010 Oct 13 and 26; the true number of bursts in some of the observations is uncertain, due to their faintness and (at times) high persistent variability.
