Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry
downlink, we report further analysis of BAT GRB 061028 (trigger #235715)
(Sakamoto, et al., GCN Circ. 5762). The BAT ground-calculated position
is RA,Dec = 97.193, 46.290 deg {6h 28m 46.3s, 46d 17' 25.1"} (J2000)
+- 2.5 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 35%.
The mask-weighted lightcurve shows several weak pulses starting from T+55 sec,
and the highest peak at T+81 sec. The weak tail emission is ending around T+300 sec.
T90 (15-350 keV) is 106 +- 5 sec (estimated error including systematics).
The time-averaged spectrum from T+47 to T+166 is best fit by
a simple power-law model. The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum
is 1.73 +- 0.30. The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is
9.7 +- 1.7 x 10^-07 erg/cm2. The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from
T+79.94 sec in the 15-150 keV band is 0.7 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec.
All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level.
