OSCAR Number Administrator, William A. (Bill) Tynan, W3XO issued this notice in regards to OSCAR number assignment to the two University of
Texas FASTRAC satellites.
“I have received word from Thomas M Campbel through Andy MacAllister, W5ACM that the two FASTRAC satellites developed by the University of
Texas Satellite Design Laboratory, Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics Department have been confirmed as separated
and functioning. Further, I am informed by Drew Glasbrenner, KO4MA, that these two spacecraft have been coordinated through IARU and meet
the other requirements for issuance of OSCAR numbers.
Therefore I congratulate Sebastian Muñoz Toro and all on the FASTRAC team for building testing and launching these two satellites; and by
the authority vested in me by the AMSAT-NA President, I hereby issue FASTRAC OSCAR-69 or FO-69 to FASTRAC 1 and FASTRAC OSCAR-70 to FASTRAC 2.
