Sadly, AO-85 (Fox-1A) has been declared at end of mission. But, I think I
will retain AO-85 in the TLE distribution for a while just in case there are
some last comments from our friend. (Remember AO-7?)
The following Amateur Radio satellite's name and NORAD CAT ID have been

2. Based on changes in Space-Track TLE data, HuskySat-1's new NORAD CAT ID
is now object 45119.

OBJECT J - NORAD CAT ID 44347 (non-amateur satellite FALCONSAT-7)
TBEX-A - NORAD CAT ID 44356 (non-amateur satellite)
The following Amateur Radio satellite has been added to this week's TLE
distribution:
HuskySat 1 - NORAD CAT ID 45117 (Cygnus NG-12 Spacecraft deployment,
