NUMBER:  7093
SUBJECT: Correction to the Swift-BAT Transient Identification (trigger=296683)

T. Ukwatta (GWU)
(i.e. the Swift-BAT team):
 
The recent Swift-BAT Transient detection (trigger=296683) was misidentified
in the ground processing as XTE_J1701-462.  It is actually GRO J1008-571
(with a position delta from the on-board location of 1.0 arcmin).
Everything else in the GCN Notices is correct.
