Description
We have been monitoring the position of the very faint X-ray transient
XTE J1728-295 (= IGR J17285-2922, ATel #2823, #2824, #2825) with the
Faulkes Telescopes North and South throughout its outburst. Data were
acquired on thirteen dates from 1st September until 28th October, mostly
in I- band and R-band. Of the original seven stars
detected with the Faulkes Telescope South within and around the 3.5
arcsec Swift XRT error circle, only star 3, a blue star, is consistent
with the refined 0.6 arcsec Chandra position (ATel #2827, #2869).
