TITLE:   GCN GRB OBSERVATION REPORT
NUMBER:  1691
SUBJECT: IPN triangulation of GRB021108 (CORRECTION; TWO LARGE ERROR BOXES)

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

E. Mazets and S. Golenetskii, on behalf of the Konus-Wind GRB team, and

T. Cline, on behalf of the Ulysses and Konus GRB teams, report:

Further analysis of this event (GCN 1679, 1683) reveals that it cannot
be localized to a single error box at this time.  The annulus reported in
GCN 1679 (RA, Decl(2000)=0.517, -35.271 degrees, radius 47.726
+/-  0.026 degrees, 3 sigma) can only be constrained to two alternate
error boxes.  One lies between between RA, Dec=296.8, -67.1 degrees,
and 297.4, -46.5 degrees, as reported in GCN 1683.  The other lies
between RA, Dec=44.5, -9.2 degrees and 56.0, -26.7 degrees.
