As reported in GCN #4922 (Vetere et al.): At 20:16:40 on 25 Mar 2006 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and located a burst from SGR 1900+14 (trigger=202746). The BAT on-board calculated location is RA,Dec 286.828, +9.270 {19h 07m 19s, +09d 16' 11"} (J2000) with an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including systematic uncertainty). This position is consistent with SGR 1900+14 (3.3 arcminutes).
