RXTE observed the transient pulsar SWIFT J1626.6-5156 (Palmer et al., ATEL #678) on 2005 Dec 19 21:07 (UT) for 670 seconds and on 2005 Dec 20 02:56 for 3800 seconds. The source had a mean flux of ~120 mCrab (2-10 keV). At the beginning of the second observation, the pulse peaks were seen to increase with time from about 130 to 200 mCrab over ten minutes, suggesting strong pulsed variability.
