MXB 1728-34 has been observed by the SAS 3 observatory on eight occasions. It was bursting 95-100 per cent of the time, with burst intervals from 4 to 8 hr. The burst intervals were not correlated with the burst intensities. Seven relatively hard bursts occurring in July 1976 were all observed at energies up to about 30 keV. Following each of these bursts, enhanced X-ray emission was observed for several minutes, with a much softer spectrum than that of the bursts themselves. No periodic pulsations were observed from the associated steady source.
