D. M. Smith, R. P. Lin, J. McTiernan, R. Schwartz, C. Wigger, W. 
Hajdas, and A. Zehnder, on behalf of the RHESSI GRB team, report:

Ulysses, Konus-Wind, and RHESSI observed this burst at 04195 s.  As
observed by Ulysses, it had a duration of ~6 s, a 25-100 keV fluence
of ~4E-6 erg/cm2, and a peak flux over 0.5 s of ~9E-7 erg/cm2 s.
We have triangulated it to a preliminary annulus centered at
RA, Decl(2000)= 182.709, 36.685 degrees, with radius 60.238 +/-
0.27 degrees (3 sigma).

In addition, the Konus response limits the arrival direction to 
ecliptic latitudes between +55 and +75 degrees, that is, to
those portions of the annulus between RA, Decl=257, +32 and 269, +52,
and between RA, Decl=304, +78 and 62, +77.

This annulus can be improved and/or constrained further, but
as this event was not observed by Mars Odyssey, a small error
box cannot be obtained for it.
