Wilson-Hodge (NASA/MSFC)report: \n\n\"At 12:41:59  UT on 2008 Aug 22, the GLAST Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered \n on the new Soft Gamma Repeater 0501+4516 (GRB 080822) \n(GBM 080822.529 / trigger 241101720), reported by SWIFT \n(Holland et al., GCN Circ. 8112, Barthelmy et al, GCN Circ. 8113 \nand GCN Circ. 8119). \n\nThe on-ground calculated location, using the GBM trigger data, is \nRA = 86.2, Dec = +43.5 (J2000 degrees),(equivalent to J2000 05h 45m, +43d\n30'), \nwith an uncertainty of 3.3 degrees (radius, 1-sigma containment, statistical\n\nonly). The true location error is 8.0 degrees for this soft, short event.\n\nThis event has a duration of about 80 ms. The spectrum in the \n10 keV to 100 keV energy band is well fit by a power law function\nwith an index of -1.6 +/-0.1. The high temperature for an \noptically thin thermal bremsstrahlung (OTTB) fit is: 71 +/-13 keV.  \nThese results are consistent with the trigger clearly being seen to 100 keV.\n\nThe spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary.\"",
