Referred to by ATel #: 14556, 15142

In ATel #14502 and ATel #14508 we reported two repetitions of FRB 20210402A. In the latter we estimated that the bursts were so bright as to be detectable with 20-metre and 40-metre dishes, respectively, with a signal-to-noise ratio of 10. Subsequently, correcting our calculations, we find that the bursts are brighter still. More accurately we estimate that they would be detectable with a signal-to-noise ratio of 10 with a 10-metre and 20-metre dish, respectively (with aperture efficiency of 0.63, system temperature 30K)
