Analysis of the ASM data of SWIFT J1753.5-0127 (Atel #546) using the Swift position
(Atel #547) show that the outburst began on 2005 June 29, rising to a level of 140 mCrab
on July 1. An observation made with the PCA on July 1 at 01:00 UT
shows the source at 120 mCrab. The PDS of the PCA observation shows a
0.6 Hz QPO with a shape typically seen in BH Candidates.
