Popis: The COMPTEL experiment on GRO images 0.7 – 30 MeV celestial gamma-radiation that falls within its 1 steradian field of view. During the first fifteen months in orbit, preliminary localizations from BATSE triggers indicated that about 1 in 6 cosmic events could have fallen within COMPTEL's field of view. We summarize work on the brightest of these gamma-ray bursts and present new position constraints for GRB 911118 and GRB 920622.
