We find that the burst activity is systematically delayed towards lower frequencies by ~3 days from 600 MHz to 150 MHz.

We model the bursts cumulative energy distribution, with energies from ${\sim}10^{38}$-$10^{39}$ erg, and find that it is well described by a power-law with slope of $\gamma=-1. 1\pm 0. 2$.

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright, millisecond-duration radio transients originating from extragalactic distances.

The bursts are generally detected in less than a third of the 580-MHz observing bandwidth, demonstrating that narrow-band FRB signals may be more common than previously thought.
