COMMENTS:         RXTE-PCA WILL observe this LOCBURST GRB location.  
COMMENTS:         The RXTE-PCA observation will start at 97/12/10 00:04:00.00 UT.  
COMMENTS:         RXTE is already at GRB region by direct slew command.  
COMMENTS:         Unfortunately, processing the update plan at Mission   
COMMENTS:         Operation Center failed, we cannot make systematic
