We present NSs merging rate MAP inside local 50 Mpc distance (see 
Lipunov, V. M.; Nazin, S. N.; Panchenko, I. E.; Postnov, K. A.; 
Prokhorov, M. E. The gravitational wave sky, Astronomy and 
Astrophysics, v.298, p.677, 1995; Lipunov et al., 2017,
https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1710/1710.05911.pdf ).

There are two common regions belong to IPN (Kozlova et al., GCN 22076) 
(black   on picture) aproximated next 
rectangle:

First:

  [37,-35]
  [60,-20]
  [60,-30]
  [40,-45]


Second:

[73,-10]
[80,-04]
[80,-11]
[73,-21]
