Smith, J. In't Zand, Space Research Organization of the Netherlands\n(SRON), Utrecht, report:\n\"The BeppoSAX Gamma Ray Burst Monitor (GRBM) and Wide\nField Camera (WFC unit 1) observed an untriggered, faint and possibly\nshort gamma-ray burst on November 6.4545 UT. A preliminary analysis\nreveals a duration of about 1 s in the GRBM, with a peak photon countrate\nof 120 cts/s in the 40-700 keV energy band. In the WFC, the duration is\nabout 5 s and the peak flux is 0.3 Crab (2-26 keV). The position of the\nX-ray counterpart is R.A. = 22h24m49s Decl. =  +54d21'.9 (equinox 2000.0)\nwith an 99% error radius of  3.2'. An analysis of the 70 ksec NFI\nfollow-up, performed about 8 hours after, is being carried on.\"\n\n#----------------------------------#------------------------------------------#\n Giangiacomo Gandolfi              | E-mail:\n Istituto Astrofisica Spaziale     | gandolfi@hal9000.ias.rm.cnr.it\n C.N.R.                            | \n Via Fosso del Cavaliere           | phone: -39-06-4993-4005\n I-00133 Roma                      | \n Italy                             | fax(CNR)  : -39-06-20660188\n#__________________________________#__________________________________________#",
