We present our discovery of a new double-mode high-amplitude Scuti variable, HADS(B) type, USNO-B1.0 1329-0132547. We found the frequencies and . The period ratio is typical of radially pulsating HADS(B) stars. |

The light curves of USNO-B1.0 1329-0132547 in the , and bands are displayed in Figs. 3, 4, 5. The power spectra of USNO-B1.0 1329-0132547 (Fig. 2) are plotted both for the raw data and with the fundamental-mode oscillations subtracted.
The -band range of USNO-B1.0 1329-0132547 is from 1728 to 1758; the -band range is 183-187. The delta magnitude -band range is 2.18-2.40. The period ratio is typical of high-amplitude double-mode Scuti stars radially pulsating in the fundamental and first overtone modes (Petersen & Christensen-Dalsgaard 1996). The infrared color index (2MASS) does not contradict the suggested type if we take into account possible reddening for the galactic latitude .
