HuskySat-1 Designated HuskySat-OSCAR 107 (HO-107)
On November 2, 2019, the HuskySat-1 cubesat launched on the Cygnus NG-
12 mission from Wallops Island, Virginia, USA. The satellite was con-
structed by the Husky Satellite Lab at the University of Washington,
and utilizes an AMSAT-constructed radio system for primary communica-
tions. Deployed from the Cygnus vehicle on January 31, 2020 after de-
parting the ISS, HuskySat-1 began a 3-month educational mission. Upon
completion of that mission, the satellite began operation of a V/u
linear transponder in amateur service.
At the request of the Husky Satellite Lab and AMSAT teams, AMSAT here-
by designates HuskySat-1 as HuskySat-OSCAR 107 (HO-107). We congratu-
late the Husky Satellite Lab, thank them for their contribution to the
amateur satellite community, and wish them continued success on this
and future projects.
73,
Drew Glasbrenner, KO4MA
AMSAT VP Operations / OSCAR Number Administrator
