Day 3: TV and LM Housekeeping	Journal Home Page	Coming soon

098:01:55 Mitchell:Be advised that - okay, understand. Be advised that the HIGH GAIN, I've tried manual procedures and about three-quarters of that signal strength I can get.

098:36:13 Roosa:Good morning, Houston. 14 here.

098:36:17 CC:Apollo 14, Apollo 14; this is Houston. Roger. Good evening, Stu.

098:36:26 Roosa:Good evening? It's good morning, Bruce baby.

098:36:30 CC:Roger. How'd you all sleep?

098:36:47 Roosa:And Bruce, I've got a crew status report for you.

098:36:50 CC:Okay. Go ahead with your crew status report.

098:36:56 Roosa:Okay. Al: 6 hours of sleep, dosimeter, 16048; Ed: 6 hours, 01046; and 6 hours, 05038.

098:37:12 CC:Okay. Understand 6 hours of sleep each, 16o48, 01046, and 05038. Over.

098:37:27 Roosa:That's affirmative.

098:37:30 CC:14, this is Houston. At this time, we would like the CMP and the LMP to swap dosimeters. The LMP dosimeter is inoperative, and we would like to have two active dosimeters on the lunar surface. Over.

098:37:47 Roosa:Okay. We'll do that.

098:38:16 CC:And, 14; this is Houston. Would you confirm a negative presleep status report. Over.

098:38:28 Roosa:That's affirmative. We went to bed all healthy, no medication, and we're getting up the same way.

098:38:35 CC:Roger. Out.

098:38:54 CC:Okay. When you're interested, I have about four or five general information-type items to pass up to you all.

098:39:06 Roosa:Okay, Bruce. This is something - we should all be on the headset for? If it is, we should Just wait a few minutes.

098:39:14 CC:Yes. Why don't we do that? There's no great rush in any of them, but we've got 24 minutes to LOS. And just let me know when you're ready.

098:39:26 Roosa:Okay. I'll take a consumables update, anytime you've got it. We'll get that out of the way, if you want to give it to me now.

098:39:33 CC:Okay, I'll have the consumables update for you momentarily. In the meantime, we'd like you to read out the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA meters and the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA knobs. It has not been switching to NARROW BEAM at AOS. We're not sure why, right now. We's like to leave the configuration as is and get those read-outs. Over.

098:40:10 Roosa:Okay, Bruce, the -

098:40:15 Mitchell:Bruce, this is Ed. I got my biomed on, and I got the sensor corrected. Have the medics take a look at it while you're talking to Stu, please.

098:40:23 CC:I understand you have your biomed hooked up, and the sensor is connected, and you'd like the medics to look at it.

098:40:30 Mitchell:That's affirm.

098:40:32 CC:We're in LOW BIT RATE right now, Ed. You'll have to hold on a minute.

098:40:42 Roosa:Okay, Bruce, the read-outs on the PITCH meter is 50 degrees, on the YAW meter is 270, on the knob, it's set at 35; and the - PITCH - YAW knob is set ? at 275-

098:41:06 CC:Okay, Stu, on pitch, is that plus or minus? Over.

098:41:12 Roosa:Oh, sorry about that. Both are minuses.

098:41:15 CC:Okay. Meter: PITCH, minus 50; YAW, 270; knob, minus 35 and 275. Over.

098:41:27 Roosa:That's affirmative.

098:41:29 CC:Okay; coming at you with a consumables update. Over.

098:41:36 Roosa:And let her rip.

098:41:38 CC:At a GET of 99 hours even; RCS total, 74 percent; quads in order, 73, 75, 73, 75; hydrogen, 65, 65; oxygen, 85, 83, 31. Over.

098:42:10 Roosa:Roger. Copy the GET 99 hours; RCS total, 74; quads, 73, 75, 73, 75; hydrogen, 65, 65; 0 , 85, 83, 31.

098:42:27 CC:Roger, out.

098:42:43 Mitchell:Houston, 14.

098:42:44 CC:Go ahead, Ed.

098:42:50 Mitchell:Are you going to switch over to HIGH BIT RATE so you can look at this? I'd like to go ahead and start suiting up.

098:42:55 CC:Stand by.

098:43:17 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. We request HIGH GAIN ANTENNA SERVO ELECTRONICS to SECONDARY. Over.

098:43:28 Mitchell:Okay. ... - -

098:43:29 Roosa:Okay; going to SECONDARY.

098:45:11 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. Request S-BAND NORMAL, TRANSPONDER, SECONDARY. Over.

098:45:22 Mitchell:Roger. TRANSPONDER, SECONDARY.

098:46:08 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. How do you read?

098:46:14 Mitchell:Loud and clear. How me?

098:46:15 CC:Roger; reading you the same.

098:47:00 Mitchell:Houston, 14.

098:47:03 CC:Go ahead, 14.

098:47:07 Mitchell:I'd appreciate an answer on your intentions relative to the sensor.

098:47:11 CC:Okay, Ed. Relative to the sensor, we require a HIGH BIT RATE down here in order for the surgeon to get any biomed telemetry. We're attempting to get HIGH BIT RATE at the present time, as evidenced by our request for SECONDARY ELECTRONICS on the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA and the SECONDARY TRANSPONDER, We'll let you know just as soon as we can press on. Perhaps, in the meantime, you could tell us which sensor you think was giving you the problem and what you've done in the meantime to it. Over.

098:47:43 Mitchell:Okay, the lower sternum sensor was leaking, and we replaced it last evening, and it seemed to be the only one that had a chance to he in had shape.

098:47:59 CC:We copy. Out.

098:48:01 Mitchell:... to be the only one that looked like it might be ...

098:48:03 CC:Roger out. And -

098:48:41 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. Request HIGH GAIN, ELECTRONIC - HIGH GAIN ANTENNA, SERVO ELECTRONICS, POWER, PRIMARY; S-BAND NORMAL, TRANSPONDER to PRIMARY, and go to TRACK mode, MANUAL. Over.

098:49:47 Mitchell:Houston, 14. Do you read, now?

098:49:49 CC:14. This is Houston. Roger. We're reading you about 5 by 4. Over.

098:49:58 Mitchell:Okay. I've given - given you PRIMARY, SERVO ELECTRONICS; PRIMARY, TRANSPONDER; and what else did you want?

098:50:04 CC:Roger. We want to go back to TRACK mode, MANUAL; and we'll use the positions that you have set on the PITCH and YAW dials at the present time.

098:50:15 Mitchell:Okay.

098:50:30 Mitchell:... MANUAL ...

098:50:34 CC:Okay. And reading you about 4 by 2 at the present time. Stand by.

098:51:28 Mitchell:Houston. 14. Do you read?

098:51:31 CC:Roger, Ed. We're reading you. We'd like you to do a normal manual acquisition, switching back the WIDE BEAM and then coming on over.

098:51:42 Mitchell:Okay.

098:53:03 Mitchell:Houston, I have you on AUTO and NARROW again, and I cannot seem to get the signal strength above about the three-quarter mark.

098:53:14 CC:Roger. I'm reading you with a good bit of noise in the background, Ed.

098:54:09 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. We request you attempt acquisition again using the normal manual procedures. Over.

098:54:20 Mitchell:Roger. Roger.

098:56:09 CC:Apollo 14, Apollo 14; this is Houston. We suggest HIGH GAIN ANTENNA angles of PITCH, minus 25; YAW, 280. I say it again: PITCH, minus 25; YAW, 280. Over.

098:56:52 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. We suggest HIGH GAIN ANTENNA; PITCH, minus 25; that is minus 25; YAW, 280; YAW, 280. Over.

098:59:30 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. How do you - -

098:59:32 Mitchell:Houston, Apollo lU. How do you read?

098:59:33 CC:- - minutes to LOS.

098:59:34 CC:Roger. Loud and clear, now, Ed. We've got 4 - -

098:59:37 Mitchell:Go ahead, Bruce. You're loud and clear.

098:59:49 CC:Apollo 14 - -

098:59:50 Mitchell:Go ahead.

098:59:51 CC:Apollo 14, Stu. We've got 4 minutes until LOS. I have a four-step procedure for testing the lunar topo camera, if you are ready to listen and copy?

099:00:06 Roosa:Stand hy 1, Bruce.

099:00:08 CC:Roger. We're standing hy.

099:00:24 Roosa:Okay, go ahead Bruce,

099:00:27 CC:Okay. With respect to the Hycon, we think this may be a low-current problem. We've been able to duplicate most of your symptoms down here in Building 4 with the other model. What we'd like you to do is - step 1: disconnect all power connectors, inspect, and reconnect. Over.

099:01:02 Roosa:Okay. This baby reads disconnect all power connectors, inspect, and reconnect. And I guess -you know, we - we do that when we put it in and out, if I understand your step right. I mean, they're all disconnected. I guess you mean just look at the pins and so forth. Amplify that just a little bit, Bruce.

099:01:23 CC:That's correct. We'd just like you to inspect for bent pins, any sort of damage, cracked insulators; anything like that you can find in error. Break, break, for Ed. We are unable to verify your biomed harness at this time. We'd like you to change out biomed harness. Do not suit up, and we'll check it over at AOS, next pass. Over.

099:01:48 Mitchell:Roger. Understand. Change out the biomed harness, and do not suit up.

099:01:52 CC:Roger. You can - you can suit up partially - -

099:02:02 CC:Roger. We copy on the HIGH GAIN. You can suit up partially if you want to take the risk of having to unsuit a little ways. Break, break, for Stu. Step 2: we'd like you to switch non-essential power to opposite MAIN DC BUS, that is, from B to A or A to B, whatever you were on last time. Step 3: reset control box film counter to zero; shutter speed to l/200th of a second; with magazine removed, visually examine the shutter-curtain slit position. If the slit is visible, it should not be more than 1 inch from the magazine guide rail. Examine sprocket area for visible tears. Step 4: install magazine Whiskey and actuate single frame. Remove magazine and verify slit is not more than 1 inch from magazine guide rail, if visible. Thirty seconds to LOS. I repeat, switch from nonessential power from BUS B to A or A to B, opposite what you had. Reset control box film counter to zero and shutter to l/200th; with magazine removed, visually examine shutter-curtain slit position; if visible, slit should not be more than 1 inch frcm magazine guide rail. Examine sprocket area for visible tears; install magazine Whiskey and actuate single frame. Remove magazine and verify slit is not more than 1 inch from magazine guide rail. We'll talk, to you on AOS next time on the results.

099:29:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 10

099:53:16 CC:Apollo 14. Apollo 14, this is Houston. How do you read? Over.

099:53:24 Roosa:Read you 5 square, Bruce. How me?

099:53:27 CC:Roger, Stu. We're reading you with a good bit of background noise. We've got a few things to pass up to you, if you're ready to listen.

099:53:43 Roosa:Okay. Stand by just 1.

099:53:45 CC:Okay. In the meantime, Stu, for you or Ed, we'd like you to try a normal acquisition again on the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA and, if that's NO GO, try acquisition in MANUAL and MEDIUM BEAM width. Over.

099:54:05 Roosa:Okay. Let me get down here and give it a go.

099:55:19 Roosa:Houston, how do you read Apollo 14?

099:55:25 CC:Okay. Loud and clear, 14.

099:55:31 Roosa:Okay, Bruce; doesn't seem to be doing too good. Still can't get the lock up solid all the way. I'm in AUTO and MEDIUM now, and that's where you want it?

099:55:45 CC:That's affirmative, 14. And we're checking out Ed's biomed.

099:55:54 Roosa:Okay.

099:56:03 CC:Okay. In the meantime, an item of general interest on your orbital status. You started out somewhat high and are decaying at a slightly greater rate than predicted. However, the altitude at PDI will still be about 46,000 feet. That's 46,000 feet or 8.3 nautical miles; so your pericynthion's still good. Over.

099:56:34 Roosa:Okay. Sounds like good planning.

099:56:59 CC:And, Apollo 14; Stu, map update REV 11, if you're ready.

099:57:07 Roosa:Negative. Stand by 1.

099:57:22 CC:Apollo 14; Ed, this is Houston. You're GO to commence suiting up.

099:57:32 Mitchell:Roger, Roger. Thank you, Bruce.

099:57:34 CC:Biomed's looking good. Apollo 14; Ed, this is Houston. Can you monitor, just for a minute, discussion on the ascent batteries.

099:57:51 Mitchell:Roger. I'm on. Go ahead.

099:57:53 CC:14, Houston. Our feeling right now is that this is a single-cell problem in ascent battery number 5- If one cell were shorted out entirely and completely discharged, this would drop your terminal voltage by 1.8 volts. The expected voltage, open circuit, at activation is greater than 35-3. I say again, it's greater than 35*3. However, the open circuit voltage will not be our criterion. We will use the Delta in voltage between BATs 5 and 6 underload to evaluate battery 5. If there is more than a 1.8-volt Delta between 5 and 6 - that is, if it should turn out that you have a problem with more than one cell, then battery 5 will be NO GO. Over.

099:58:55 Mitchell:Understand, Houston, that if, in subsequent checks, we have more than one cell that shows up bad, battery 5 will be NO GO.

099:59:06 CC:Roger.

099:59:11 Roosa:Okay. And I'm ready for the REV 11 update, Bruce.

099:59:15 CC:14, Houston. REV 11, 180 degrees, 102:03:40. Understand you don't need LOS or AOS; they're close to nominal.

099:59:46 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. I've got a lot of noise in the background now. Did you copy the time for 180, 102:03:40? Over.

100:01:01 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. How do you read now? Over.

100:01:38 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. How do you read?

100:01:44 Roosa:Loud and clear, Bruce.

100:01:46 CC:Okay. We're reading you again, Stu. We'd like you to go with MANUAL and MEDIUM BEAM width, please.

100:01:55 Roosa:Okay.

100:02:26 Roosa:Okay, Bruce. The antenna seemed to oscillate a little bit, there. It's steadied out now with a reasonably good signal - -

100:02:31 CC:Say, that looks beautiful. That looks beautiful, Stu.

100:02:39 Roosa:Okay - -

100:02:40 CC:Stu, did you copy the time for 180-degree meridian, 102:03:40?

100:02:51 Roosa:That's affirmative; 102:03:40.

100:02:54 CC:Roger. Were you able to run through the LTC camera checkout procedures 1 through 4, or we fade out on you before you got them?

100:03:04 Roosa:That's negative on being able to run through them. I didn't even begin to get them copied, Bruce. I guess - I need to - What time frame are you thinking of me troubleshooting that one? Is that something that we need to worry about right now?

100:03:18 CC:No, we'll hold off on that.

100:03:43 CC:Okay, 14. On the subject of the docking probe situation, for undocking, we anticipate a normal undocking sequence, that is, extension followed by release of the LM. If there should be no release at this time, we request that you hold the RELEASE position of the EXTEND/RELEASE switch and both vehicles thrust minus-X for 3 seconds, and then RELEASE on the - or return the switch to center. Over.

100:04:28 Roosa:Okay. Understand; we're anticipating a normal SEP. If we get on the end of the probe and no release, we'll both thrust minus-X for 3 seconds.

100:04:39 CC:Roger. While you hold the switch in the RELEASE position. And we've got some other procedures that we'll run through in real time, if the requirement develops, in order to accomplish an undocking. We would like to say at this time, though, that we are not considering blowing the docking ring in order to undock. Over.

100:05:06 Roosa:Okay. That sounds reasonable.

100:05:10 CC:And is A1 listening?

100:05:16 Roosa:A1 is not on the headset right now, Bruce.

100:05:19 CC:Okay. I wonder if you'd pass to him that when he and Ed go over into the LM, they should either carry with them a tool R, that's tool Romeo, from the command module, or, if he should have such a thing as a screwdriver, bit, or something like that available, why that would also suffice. Over.

100:05:46 Roosa:Okay. I'll let him borrow a tool R, I guess, on a hand receipt, and he'll take that over with him.

100:05:54 CC:Roger. Be sure and get a QC stamp on it.

100:06:01 Roosa:21 Nancy.

100:06:03 CC:(Laughter) Roger; 21 Nancy. Hey, a little more background on that - thing that we're looking for, of course, would be an item such as tool R that would enable our crewmen from the LM to depress the capture latch release button on the tip of the probe from the LM side, and tool R will fill this bill, or this other screwdriver, if it were available. Over.

100:06:32 Roosa:Okay. We got you.

100:06:36 CC:And with respect to docking, again we anticipate normal operation. However, we'd like to add to the normal procedures a LM plus-X thrust of 10 seconds, four-jet RCS, to facilitate or to give us just a little more of a warm feeling on the docking. Once again, we have some backup procedures that we can run through in real time, if these should prove necessary, and, in order to formalize this, I've got a flight-plan update for the CMP Solo Book and for the LM Time Line Book whenever you all are ready to copy these down.

100:07:28 Roosa:Okay. Stand by here and let's get out the LM Time Line.

100:07:34 CC:Roger. I'll do likewise down here. And we'll make them together.

100:07:41 Roosa:Okay.

100:07:46 CC:And since you don't have a lot going on up there right now, Stu, I wondered if you could give us P00 and ACCEPT, and we'll send you up some uplinks We've got a state vector, a desired orientor REFSMMAT, a - and that's it.

100:08:04 Roosa:Okay, You have P00 and ACCEPT.

100:08:15 CC:Okay, Stu. You seem to be fading out a little bit Are you close enough to the mike?

100:08:24 Roosa:I - I'm talking right into them, Bruce. You have P00 and ACCEPT.

100:08:28 CC:Roger. Thank you. And would you return to the NARROW dead band five-tenths of a degree in the DAP, please?

100:08:38 Roosa:Okay. Stand by 1.

100:08:40 CC:That's in reference to keeping the HIGH GAIN pointed right at us here.

100:08:46 Roosa:Okay.

100:09:43 Roosa:Okay. I'm NARROW dead band. I'm through with the DSKY if you want to press with the uplink, and looks like we got good signal strength here.

100:09:50 CC:Okay. It looks real good here, Stu, and we'll press on with the uplink. And I got my Time Line Book out and we're going to page 14.

100:10:01 Roosa:Okay. We'll have to stand by on that LM Time Line Book for a little bit here, Bruce.

100:10:05 CC:Okay.

100:10:15 CC:And back on the subject of the drogue, I guess our analysis down here and all the data that we've been able to come up with indicates that you did, in fact, have a normal retraction on the last attempt. The selection of a bottle did not contribute to the capture in itself, and we've passed you the procedures here that we'd like you to run through.

100:10:41 Roosa:Okay.

100:11:58 Roosa:Houston, 14.

100:12:00 CC:Go ahead, 14.

100:12:06 Roosa:Okay, Bruce. I - just something that seems like back from memory in debriefing from 11 - they tried this plus-X on the IM and docking and they got some - if I remember right - some attitude excursions. Is everybody satisfied that the LM can plus-X and everything will be stable?

100:12:51 CC:14, this is Houston. Roger. We recalled 11, and the biggest part of the problem there was that both vehicles were actively trying to control attitude. The procedure which we'll be passing up to you has you going into CMC MODE, FREE, prior to the IM commencing its plus-X thrusting. Over.

100:13:19 Roosa:Okay. So I guess we'll - we'll wait until we get the changes, and then we'll talk about it, if we've got any questions.

100:13:25 CC:Roger.

100:18:14 CC:14, Houston. I have your CMC REFSMMAT zero time update for you. There is no GET or T , update . , i. ephem ^ required. Over.

100:18:31 Roosa:Okay. And I'm ready to copy, Bruce.

100:18:34 CC:Okay, CMC REFSMMAT zero zero time is 108 hours 53 minutes 58.00 seconds. And I'll have the TEI-19 pad shortly. You want to go ahead and read back?

100:18:53 Roosa:Okay, REFSMMAT zero zero time, 108 - 108?53:58.00.

100:19:01 CC:Roger, readback correct. I'll be coming at you with the TEI-19 pad in about 10 seconds.

100:19:09 Roosa:Okay.

100:19:35 CC:And if you're ready to copy on TEI-19, I'm ready.

100:19:49 Roosa:Okay, TEI-19; let her go, Bruce.

100:19:53 CC:Roger, Stu. SPS/G&N; 36583; minus 0.66, plus 0.24; T. , 119:38:09.13; NOUN 8l, plus 2903.4, plus 1564.7, minus 0485.2; roll, 179, 120, 029- The rest of the pad is NA. Ullage, four jets, 11 seconds. Remarks: this is an undocked burn. We assume circularization, but no plane change number 1. The lunar longitude that you are crossing at time of T. is minus 175-8 west longitude. Over, ig

100:21:23 Roosa:Okay, TEI-19; SPS/G&N; 36583; minus 0.66, plus 0.24; 119:38:09.13; plus 2903.4, plus 1564.7, minus 0485.2; 179, 120, 029. Ullage, four jet, 11 seconds; undocked, assumed CIRC, no plane change 1; and longitude of Tig. minus 175.8.

100:22:06 CC:14, this is Houston; readback correct. Out.

100:22:14 Roosa:Roger.

100:24:10 Roosa:And, Houston, 14.

100:24:12 CC:Go ahead, Stu.

100:24:16 Roosa:Okay, the IM/command module DELTA-P is 0.8.

100:24:22 CC:Houston, Roger. Out.

100:25:06 CC:Stu, Houston. How is your viewing attitude up there?

100:25:14 Roosa:It's rather tremendous, Bruce. This - Coming across this low - low orbit is phenomenal, and this attitude is absolutely great.

100:25:28 CC:I guess that settles that one.

100:26:03 Roosa:I tell you one thing, Bruce; you sure get the LMPression you're more like about a thousand feet than 45,000.

100:26:13 CC:I guess the scenery is really clipping along.

100:26:19 Roosa:Yes, and it seems so close. It looks like you can Just reach out and touch it.

100:26:26 CC:The recent input from FA0 is that we need the Hycon camera check prior to a GET of 107 hours. That's about 6 hours from now.

100:26:42 Roosa:Okay, prior 107. And we'll sure try to give it a go.

100:26:48 CC:Roger. And whenever you're ready on the flight-plan update to the CMP Solo Book and the IM Time Line Book, why, we've got it setting down here, but there's no rush.

100:27:00 Roosa:Okay, I can take the CMP Solo Book now, but we might as well get them both together, and it'11 be a little bit here. They're getting their suits on.

100:27:09 CC:Okay. Well, the details of the two are a little different.

100:27:20 Roosa:Okay, lets get me out of the way and take the Solo Book now.

100:27:26 CC:Okay, on page 52.

100:27:43 Roosa:Okay, go ahe ad.

100:27:47 CC:At 144 hours and 08 minutes, it presently reads, "Translate to capture latch," we want to change that to read, "Translate to contact." Over.

100:28:11 Roosa:Okay, we'll change that "Translate to contact," and hope they're both the same, huh?

100:28:16 CC:Roger, Roger. Under that, add in "Report contacts to LM;" and "CMC MODE, FREE." Over.

100:28:43 Roosa:Okay/ and after contact, I'll report contact to IM and go CMC, FREE.

100:28:49 CC:Roger. And over there in the "Docking checklist," we want to delete the "CMC MODE, FREE." It says, "Docking checklist at capture, CMC MODE, FREE;" you can delete that.

100:29:03 Roosa:Okay, I'll delete "CMC MODE, FREE" under the "Docking checklist at capture."

100:29:08 CC:And that's it. That wasn't so bad, was it?

100:29:13 Roosa:No, that was pretty painless.

100:29:15 CC:21 Nancy.

100:29:19 Roosa:Roger.

100:31:17 CC:14, Houston.

100:31:23 Roosa:Go ahead, Bruce.

100:31:24 CC:Yes, Stu; we just got word that your family is listening to you, and they're outside looking up at that great big Fra Mauro Moon.

100:31:36 Roosa:Thank you.

100:31:57 Roosa:Okay, Bruce; for their benefit - just to pinpoint us, we're approaching the terminator now and the Fra Mauro formation. And I guess of all the views you see, I think it's going to be tough to beat this - going into the terminator at this low altitude. It's - it's really something.

100:32:17 CC:It sounds really spectacular. I'm sure we'd all like to be up there with you. I know I would.

100:32:24 Roosa:Yes, I wish you could be - yes, I wish you could be, after all that hard work.

100:32:54 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. We'd like to try the SECONDARY SERVO ELECTRONICS on the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA and attempt a normal acquisition. If that is unsuccessful, we'll return to the present configuration.

100:33:13 Roosa:All right, Bruce; go on SECONDARY, now.

100:33:29 Roosa:Okay, how do you read, Bruce?

100:33:31 CC:Loud and clear, Stu. Looks beautiful.

100:33:36 Roosa:Yes. I went SECONDARY, and there was not a glitch in - in anything.

100:33:42 CC:Are you in AUTO now?

100:33:47 Roosa:Oh, no. I am - I'm sorry. I didn't get the AUTO bit.

100:33:50 CC:Great.

100:33:51 Roosa:I thought you Just wanted SECONDARY on the ELECTRONICS.

100:33:56 CC:Great. Now that you - -

100:33:58 Roosa:You - you want AUTO MODE? Is that - -

100:34:00 CC:Now that you've got the SECONDARD SERVO ELECTRONICS up, we'd like you to run through a normal acquisition procedure; over.

100:34:10 Roosa:Oh, okay.

100:35:07 Roosa:14, Houston.

100:35:10 CC:Okay, loud and clear, Stu. It looks like it was successful. I understand - -

100:35:16 Roosa:That's negative. I'm back in MANUAL and MEDIUM. What happens when I go to AUTO - the PITCH goes to about a minus 50 and the YAW stays just about the same, but it seems like the AUTO MODE wants to drive the PITCH down to about minus 50; and if I do that in - in - in WIDE BEAM width and then I go to MEDIUM, NARROW, it doesn't seem to have any effect, and the signal strength drops back off.

100:35:51 CC:Okay, we copy, Stu.

100:35:56 Roosa:And I'm back MANUAL, MEDIUM now.

100:36:00 CC:Roger. Out.

100:44:18 CC:Okay, Stu. We have your torquing angles. You're GO.

100:44:46 Roosa:Okay, Bruce. Torqued at 101, 24, 20.

100:44:50 CC:101, 24, 20.

100:48:53 CC:14; Stu, this is Houston.

100:48:59 Roosa:Go ahead.

100:49:01 CC:Roger, Stu. Prior to commencing your maneuver here, which it looks like you're about ready to do, we'll give you an OMNI antenna to select. Once you get to the new attitude, we'd like you to return to MANUAL, MEDIUM BEAM width, and we'll give you PITCH and YAW angles. Over.

100:49:19 Roosa:All right, we're getting ready to manuever. Have you got the angles?

100:49:30 CC:Okay, Stuart. OMNI Bravo while maneuvering, and and the flight-plan angles of a PITCH, minus 80; and YAW, 98* are good.

100:49:47 Roosa:Okay, OMNI Bravo during the maneuver, and flight-plan angles good when we get there. Thank you.

100:49:53 CC:Roger. And with respect to the LM Time Line Book, we'll try to pass this up in real time during the tail end of the rendezvous. You might pass to A1 that it essentially makes the Time Line Book agree with what we gave you in the CMP Solo Book -10 seconds or contact on the thrust X-plus at contact and then confirm docking. Confirm capture report from CSM.

100:50:21 Shepard:Okay, Houston. We got that. And passing it up later is fine with us.

100:50:25 CC:Roger. We just wanted to make sure you were aware of what we had in mind.

100:51:16 CC:14, Houston. Six minutes to LOS.

100:51:21 Roosa:Okay. Thank you.

100:56:33 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. One minute to LOS.

100:56:39 Shepard:Roger, Houston.

100:56:42 Mitchell:Okay; 14 is up - on the time line, Houston.

100:56:47 CC:Say again?

100:56:55 CC:Okay, 14. Down here, we're going to turn over to the good old Gold Team, and the friendly Maroon Team will see you in a few hours.

100:57:06 Mitchell:Okay, stick around. We've got ice cream.

100:57:11 Shepard:You'll be back for the fun, Bruce?

100:57:13 CC:I will; yes, indeed.

101:25:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 11

101:46:11 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

101:46:18 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston; Kitty Hawk.

101:46:21 CC:Okay. We're ready with some updates to you - or an uplink rather, if you can give us P00 and ACCEPT.

101:46:31 Roosa:Okay. You've got P00 and ACCEPT.

101:46:34 CC:And when you've got time, Stu, I've got some DAP data, and the SEP pad's ready.

101:46:42 Roosa:Okay. Stand by 1.

101:47:18 Roosa:Okay, Antares. How do you read Kitty Hawk B?

101:47:21 Mitchell:Okay, Kitty Hawk. Antares' LMP reads you loud and clear.

101:47:26 Shepard:CDR reads you loud and clear, Red.

101:47:30 Mitchell:Let's go VHF A.

101:47:32 Roosa:Negative. Stand by 1.

101:48:14 Mitchell:Kitty Hawk, Antares. Start count: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

101:48:18 Roosa:Oh, you're loud and clear, now.

101:48:19 Mitchell:Okay. Let's go VHP A.

101:48:21 Shepard:How about me? Am I loud and clear?

101:48:25 Roosa:You're loud and clear, fearless one.

101:48:27 Shepard:Good show, Rojo.

101:48:33 Roosa:Okay. Go ENABLE.

101:48:41 Roosa:Okay, Antares. Kitty Hawk on A SLMPLEX. How do you read?

101:48:44 Mitchell:Roger, Kitty Hawk. Antares reads you loud and clear, A SLMPLEX.

101:48:48 Roosa:You're loud and clear, Ed.

101:48:50 Shepard:Same here.

101:48:51 Roosa:You're loud and clear, Al,

101:49:06 Mitchell:Houston, this is Antares. Over.

101:49:08 CC:Antares, Houston. Read you loud and clear.

101:49:13 Mitchell:Okay. Stand by.

101:49:28 Mitchell:Houston, PRIMARY EVAP FLOW NUMBER 1, OPEN; 102:15: 45 .

101:49:39 CC:Okay. Copy now.

101:49:43 Mitchell:Okay, and your LM power transfer time was 101:54:02.

101:49:51 CC:Roger, Ed. We got it.

101:49:56 Mitchell:And let's have a secondary S-band check.

101:50:00 CC:Okay, Ed. We're reading you loud and clear on secondary S-band, and they're ready for primary.

101:50:10 Mitchell:Okay. Let's go primary.

101:50:26 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. The computer is yours, and are you ready for the updates yet?

101:50:46 Roosa:Okay, Fred. The computer's mine and go ahead.

101:50:51 CC:Let me give you your DAP data first. Your CSM weight is plus 36l16. Your gimbal trims: pitch, minus 08l; yaw, plus 019.

101:51:16 Roosa:Okay, The DAP data: weight 36116; minus 08l, plus 019.

101:51:28 CC:Okay. That's a good readback, and if you've got the pad book out, I'll give you your SEP pad.

101:51:38 Roosa:Okay - -

101:51:39 Mitchell:Houston, Antares. If you read me, I'll press on.

101:51:43 CC:Roger, Ed. You're loud - loud and clear. Press on.

101:51:49 Mitchell:Okay.

101:51:50 CC:And, Kitty Hawk, I understand you're ready for a SEP pad.

101:51:56 Roosa:That's affirmative, Fred. Let her go.

101:51:59 CC:Okay. Your NOUN 33 is 104:27:31.00. Pitch is 103. That's it.

101:52:17 Roosa:Okay. Copy 104:27:31.00; and pitch, 103.

101:52:30 CC:Okay. That's good read; and now, I have a P24 landmark track data for you.

101:52:44 Roosa:Okay. I'm ready to copy.

101:52:47 CC:Okay Tx, 104:56:55; T , 104:58:33; TCA, 104:59:03; T3, 104:59:25; 355, 297, and 000; south 6; and use 14-1.

101:53:34 Roosa:Okay. Copy; this is 14-1; and T^, 104:56:55; 104:58:33; 104:59:03; 104:59:25; 355, 297, 000; it's south 6; and 14-1.

101:54:05 CC:Okay. That was good, Stu; and one more thing, a map update for REV 12.

101:54:18 Roosa:All right, I'm ready.

101:54:20 CC:Okay. The 180-degree point at 103:57:28.

101:54:33 Roosa:Okay. 103:57:28. Map update, REV 12.

101:54:38 CC:Good readback.

101:54:42 CC:And one other thing, Kitty Hawk. Could you verify that the docking angle was still plus 0.9?

101:54:51 Roosa:That's affirmative, plus 0.9.

101:54:55 CC:Okay.

101:54:59 Mitchell:Houston, Antares. How do you read on the steerable antenna?

101:55:02 CC:Okay, Antares. I read you loud and clear.

101:55:07 Mitchell:Okay.

101:55:26 Mitchell:Stu, I'm ready for a gimbal-angle check, here.

101:55:31 Roosa:Okay. Want me to go MIN DEAD BAND and so forth?

101:55:36 Mitchell:Roger. Go DEAD BAND, antenna ...

101:56:00 Roosa:Okay. I'm on MINIMUM DEAD BAND, antenna ... plus 00625, plus 11762, ...

101:56:21 Shepard:Okay. I've got ... - -

101:56:26 CC:And, Kitty Hawk; Houston.

101:56:31 Shepard:- - 02387.

101:56:34 Roosa:Read R^ again, Al.

101:56:36 Shepard:Okay. You got middle gimbal plus 02387.

101:56:39 Roosa:That's affirmative. Go ahead, Houston, Kitty Hawk.

101:56:42 CC:Okay. I guess we've got the LM back now. Antares, Houston. Just want to verify you're in AUTO on the steerable.

101:56:51 Mitchell:That's affirm, Fredo. I went to AUTO, and it was holding at a signal strength of 3.9* and I looked back over and we're - suddenly we're at 3, and I tried to relock, and I can't get it above 3 except on the OMNI.

101:57:12 CC:Roger, Ed.

101:57:18 Mitchell:If you'll give me a new set of angles, we'll try it again.

101:57:21 CC:Stand by.

101:57:34 CC:Okay, Antares; Houston. We'd like you to try the steerable again, and the flight-plan angles are 116 and 4l. Should be good.

101:57:45 Mitchell:Okay. Here we go again.

101:58:31 Mitchell:All right, Houston; Antares. I'm locked back up on the steerable, and that antenna's making a hell of a racket when it drives.

101:58:43 CC:Roger, Ed.

101:59:15 CC:And, Antares; Houston. We have good lock, now; and we'd like to verify you're in AUTO. And the noise - again, we're not knowing what level you're hearing; there is quite a bit of noise with that antenna.

101:59:31 Mitchell:I understand that. It's Just surprisingly much more than I expected, and I am in AUTO. And it seems to be holding at a signal, strength of about 3.9, ri ght now.

101:59:41 CC:Okay. And, Antares, whenever you get time there to copy, I've got your AGS abort constants ready.

102:00:00 Mitchell:Okay. I'd like to hold those for a minute, Fredo.

102:00:03 CC:That would be fine, Ed.

102:00:16 Mitchell:Okay, Stu, we're coarse alined; don't know if I need ATT hold.

102:00:22 Roosa:Okay.

102:02:01 Mitchell:Okay, Stu. We're ready for a snapshot on NOUN 20s, whenever you are.

102:02:07 Roosa:Okay. Standing by for your mark.

102:02:17 Mitchell:Okay. 3, 2, 1 -

102:02:20 Mitchell:MARK.

102:02:23 Roosa:Okay, on your mark, I read plus 00687, plus 11777, plus 02366.

102:02:35 Mitchell:Okay. Give them to me again, please. I was copying time GET.

102:02:40 Roosa:Okay. Plus 00687, plus 11777, plus 02366.

102:02:56 Mitchell:Okay. NOUN 20s as follows: 00687, 11777, 02366.

102:03:06 Roosa:That's a good readback.

102:03:15 Shepard:Houston, Antares. I'll take the - the AGS control now.

102:03:22 CC:Roger, Antares. And we copied the NOUN 20s down here.

102:03:31 Mitchell:Okay, and GET was 102:42:21.

102:03:40 CC:Roger. GET of 102:42:21, and here's the AGS abort constants, Ed: 224, plus 60464; 225, plus 29400; 226, plus 60480; 305, minus 01760; 662, minus 54516; 673, minus 31704.

102:04:30 Mitchell:Okay, Fredo. 224 is plus 60464; 225 is plus 29400; 226 is plus 60480; 305, minus 01760; 662, minus 54516; 673, minus 31704.

102:04:56 CC:Okay, Antares. That was good readback.

102:05:03 Mitchell:And Fredo, I'm coming on with ascent battery check, if you would like to watch that.

102:05:08 CC:Stand by.

102:05:16 CC:Antares, Houston. You have the GO for the ascent BAT check.

102:05:21 Mitchell:Okay.

102:05:29 Mitchell:BAT 5 NORMAL FEED coming on, now.

102:06:42 Roosa:Okay, I've got CMC time. You ready?

102:06:46 Mitchell:Yes. You want me to set it up on 102:47?

102:06:49 Roosa:That'd be great.

102:06:57 Roosa:Thre e se conds.

102:06:59 Roosa:Hack 102:47. Did you get that or would you like 102:47:30?

102:07:10 Mitchell:No. I have that. Stand by for a snapshot on NOUNs 65, please.

102:07:18 Roosa:Okay. I'm standing by.

102:07:22 Mitchell:Okay. VERB 06 NOUN 65; 3, 2, 1 -

102:07:27 Mitchell:MARK.

102:07:29 Roosa:Okay, on your mark, I read 102:47:28.35.

102:07:40 Mitchell:102:47:28.35. Thank you.

102:07:44 Roosa:Roger.

102:08:42 Shepard:Okay. You got a little old T , over there some- ephem where I might be able to use? Either A or B, depending upon which one you like.

102:08:48 Roosa:Okay. Stand by.

102:08:56 Roosa:Okay, Tgpkgjfl* Are you ready to copy?

102:09:09 Shepard:Go ahead, Stu.

102:09:11 Roosa:Okay. Four ball 6; 3522.3, 1602.0.

102:09:23 Shepard:You cut out there during the middle of it. Would you give it to me again, please?

102:09:26 Roosa:Okay. Four ball 6; 3522.3, 1602.0.

102:09:39 Shepard:Okay. I have four, zero, six; 3522.3, 1602.0.

102:09:46 Roosa:Okay. Let's verify R^. That's 00006.

102:09:50 Mitchell:That's verified. 00006.

102:09:52 Roosa:Okay.

102:10:20 Mitchell:Houston, Antares. ' *

102:10:22 CC:Go ahead, Antares.

102:10:28 Mitchell:My battery check is complete. The ED BAT voltage are 37*0, 37*0; and it appears that BATs 5 and 6 look exactly like they did last night.

102:10:41 CC:That looks great, Ed. Thirty-seven on each of the EDs, and we'll now get the work configured for -VERB 74.

102:10:54 Mitchell:Okay.

102:10:57 Shepard:Okay, and we got the ^ squared here. And VERB 74 is coming down.

102:11:32 Mitchell:Houston, Antares.

102:11:34 CC:Go ahead, Antares.

102:11:38 Mitchell:Do you have any updates for DAP VERB 48 numbers?

102:11:44 CC:Stand by on that one, Ed. I do have some LM torquing - gyro torque angles for you.

102:11:52 Mitchell:Okay. Roger.

102:11:57 Roosa:And Al, when you get a chance, I'd like to verify the capture latches.

102:12:04 CC:Okay, and Antares; Houston. I have the DAP data now, if you want to copy that.

102:12:14 Mitchell:Go ahead. Ready to copy.

102:12:16 CC:Okay. LM weight, plus 34039; CSM weight, plus 36116; and your gimbal angles, as loaded in the computer, are good.

102:12:37 Mitchell:Roger.

102:12:43 CC:And Antares, are you ready for the gyro torque angles, now?

102:12:52 Mitchell:Stand by.

102:12:55 CC:That's over on about page 2-26, Ed.

102:13:11 Mitchell:Okay. Ready to copy.

102:13:14 CC:A plus 00960, minus 00170, plus 00640.

102:13:32 Mitchell:I read back X, plus 00960; Y, minus 00170; Z, plus 0064o.

102:13:45 CC:Okay. That's correct, and I need a readback on the weights. I didn't get that from you.

102:13:54 Mitchell:Roger. The weight - LM weight: 34039; command module weight: 36l16.

102:14:03 CC:Okay. That's good, Antares.

102:14:12 Mitchell:And Houston, I'm in my S-band antenna stop. I'm going to have to go to OMNIs, I think.

102:14:19 CC:Roger, Ed.

102:15:02 Mitchell:Houston, Antares.

102:15:06 CC:Go ahead, Antares.

102:15:12 Mitchell:My S-band steerable pitch needle is sitting at 255 and will not move. The yaw seems to be working okay; however, I do not think that I'm in the stop.

102:15:33 CC:Okay. We copied, Antares. Your pitch reading is 255 5 and INC0 concurs that it appears down here you're not in the stop.

102:15:50 Mitchell:Okay, if you like, I took it out for safety's sake; I'll put it back on AUTO TRACK if you'll give me the angles again.

102:15:58 CC:Okay. Stand by,

102:16:06 CC:Okay. Antares, the numbers are plus 121 and 40 -plus 40 on the yaw.

102:16:15 Mitchell:Good. Roger. 121 and 40.

102:16:28 Mitchell:Okay.

102:16:43 Mitchell:Houston. You're locked up on the steerable, and n$r pitch needle is still sitting at 255. I think we have a failure in it.

102:16:55 CC:Roger, Ed.

102:17:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 12

102:17:58 Shepard:Okay, Houston. This is Kitty Hawk. We're getting ready to drop the landing gear.

102:18:04 Roosa:Okay.

102:19:07 Mitchell:Houston, this is Antares - -

102:19:09 Roosa:Okay, Houston. The gear deployed, and we've got a gray talkback.

102:19:15 CC:Roger, Antares.

102:19:18 CC:And Antares, Houston. Would you verify that the comm display breaker is closed on 16?

102:19:30 Mitchell:That's verified.

102:19:33 CC:Roger.

102:19:36 Mitchell:Remember, Fred, I've got one good needle and one bad needle.

102:19:39 CC:Okay, that wasn't - wasn't clear. We weren't sure if you just said one ... or not - Go ahead, Antares.

102:19:48 Shepard:Okay, we're ready to press ahead with - -

102:19:52 Mitchell:Roger. Fredo.

102:19:56 CC:Okay, Antares.

102:19:57 Mitchell:Houston, we're ready to press ahead with RCS PRESSURIZATION.

102:20:00 CC:Go, Antares. You go.

102:20:01 Mitchell:Go ahead.

102:20:06 Shepard:Okay, we're GO for RCS PRESS.

102:22:17 Roosa:Hey, Al, when you get a chance, I need another verifier on the capture latches.

102:24:41 Shepard:Okay, Houston. Pressurization looked good, and HELIUM PRESS, 2850.

102:24:54 CC:Roger, Antares.

102:25:29 Mitchell:And Houston. We're standing by for RCS checkout; and Stu, we need WIDE DEAD BAND, ATT hold.

102:25:43 Roosa:.. .

102:25:44 CC:Hey, Antares, we're GO for the RCS checkout.

102:25:51 Mitchell:Roger.

102:25:54 Roosa:Okay, I'm CMC FREE.

102:25:57 Mitchell:No, need ATT hold, Stu; WIDE DEAD BAND and ATT hold.

102:26:02 Roosa:Okay. This your RCS checkout?

102:26:05 Mitchell:That's affirmative.

102:26:09 Roosa:Okay. Mine says CMC FREE; I'll give you SCS WIDE DEAD BAND.

102:26:14 Mitchell:Great.

102:26:16 CC:It's the first part, Kitty Hawk. It's a cold fire.

102:28:39 Mitchell:Okay, Stu, you can go FREE now.

102:28:42 Roosa:Okay.

102:29:24 Mitchell:Houston, here comes the hard part, the hot fire check.

102:29:28 CC:Okay, Antares. We're ready.

102:30:12 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We'd like OMNI Alfa.

102:30:18 Roosa:Okay. I - Is that for Kitty Hawk?

102:30:20 CC:That's affirmative. We'd like OMNI Alfa.

102:30:25 Roosa:Okay.

102:31:51 Mitchell:Stu, hot fire checks are complete.

102:31:54 Roosa:Okay.

102:31:56 CC:Roger, Antares. We're showing you a low yaw rate now.

102:32:00 Mitchell:Go ahead.

102:32:07 Mitchell:Say again, Houston.

102:32:10 CC:We're showing a little rates on there -

102:32:12 Roosa:Why don't you bang the - take the -

102:32:21 Roosa:Why don't you take the rate out before I go back to AUTO, Ed.

102:32:25 Mitchell:Okay. You'll have to tell us which way, Stu. We're not showing any rate.

102:32:33 Roosa:Okay. Touch it a little right yaw.

102:32:48 Roosa:Okay, hit it again. Again, you got 2/lOths a second to go. Again. Again. Again, Again. Two more times.

102:33:11 Roosa:Okay, that's good.

102:33:14 Mitchell:Okay.

102:33:36 CC:Antares, Houston.

102:33:41 Mitchell:Go ahead, Houston.

102:33:43 CC:When you can work it in here, we'd like you to go back to page 2-12 and repeat step 7, which is terminate self test.

102:34:01 Mitchell:Wilco.

102:34:12 Mitchell:Okay. We'll go through it again, Houston.

102:34:17 CC:Okay, Antares. We don't need the whole self test again, just step 7> The termination step will do.

102:34:26 Mitchell:We understand.

102:34:27 CC:Roger.

102:35:09 CC:And Kitty Hawk, Houston. We're showing your cabin pressure up to about 57 now.

102:35:18 Roosa:That's affirmative. I see it.

102:36:02 Mitchell:Houston, I'm ready for an uplink if you're ready to give it to me?

102:36:06 CC:Okay, give us P00 and DATA, and we'll start her up.

102:36:17 Mitchell:You have it.

102:36:19 CC:Roger, Ed.

102:36:51 Mitchell:Stu, you look good from this side. You ready for hatch closure?

102:36:54 Roosa:That's affirmative. I'll be ready in Just a little bit.

102:37:00 Mitchell:Okay. You want us to stand by?

102:37:08 Roosa:No, you can go ahead and close your hatch.

102:37:13 Mitchell:Okay, proceeding.

102:42:06 CC:Antares, Houston. The computer is yours.

102:42:10 Mitchell:Okay, thank you.

102:42:21 CC:Antares, Houston.

102:42:26 Mitchell:Go ahead, Houston.

102:42:27 CC:Okay. With your meter problem there on the S-band, Ed, that you might change your LOS procedure to go on PITCH, 90; YAW, 0; and SLEW.

102:42:41 Mitchell:Okay. I'll do that Fredo. And I just now noticed the meter is back with me again, but I suspect it's not very reliable.

102:42:48 CC:Okay.

102:44:04 Mitchell:Houston. We had a PROGRAM alarm 1106 noted.

102:44:14 CC:Okay, Ed. We saw it here, and you can press on.

102:48:21 Roosa:Okay, Al. Would you verify your hatch is closed and the DUMP VALVE, AUTO.

102:48:28 Shepard:Verified.

102:48:34 Roosa:Okay. I've got the - all 12 latches released and the hatch in. And I'm proceeding to vent down the tunnel.

102:48:44 Shepard:Good show.

102:50:15 Mitchell:Houston, Antares.

102:50:16 CC:Antares, Houston. I've got an AGS K factor for you.

102:50:21 Mitchell:Go.

102:50:23 CC:Okay. It's plus 00100, plus all zips, plus 00072.

102:50:38 Mitchell:Understand. 100, all zeros, 00072.

102:50:43 CC:That's correct, Ed. Seven-tenths of a second.

102:50:49 Mitchell:Do you have a - an LOS pad for me, Fredo?'

102:50:55 CC:Okay. I'm showing LOS in about 8 seconds.

102:51:03 Mitchell:Thank you.

103:39:55 Roosa:Hello, Houston. Do you read Kitty Hawk?

103:39:58 CC:Kitty Hawk. Read you loud and clear.

103:40:04 Roosa:Okay. Like we're standing by for a GO for SEP.

103:40:12 CC:Roger, Kitty Hawk.

103:41:03 CC:Antares, Houston. Are you online?

103:41:12 Roosa:Antares. Do you have lockup for Houston?

103:41:15 Mitchell:Roger; stand by. Okay, Houston. You're locked up.

103:41:26 CC:Roger, Antares. We would like HIGH BIT RATE.

103:41:33 Mitchell:And you have it.

103:43:15 CC:Antares, Houston. Could you try the SERVO again?

103:43:24 Mitchell:Houston. Let me put you on OMNI until we get undocked. I'm damn busy right now.

103:43:32 CC:Okay, Ed.

103:43:35 Shepard:Okay, Houston. Do you want the - I got the gimbal angles ready for you, if you're ready to copy.

103:43:46 CC:Okay. Go ahead.

103:43:52 Shepard:Okay. On that drift check, I got a GET of 103:58:25; command module as follows: 007.69, 113.04, 022.88. Are you with me?

103:44:10 CC:Roger, A1.

103:44:14 Shepard:Okay. LM as follows 293.39, 293-05, 337-09.

103:44:25 CC:Okay. CSM, 007.69, 113-04, 022.88; LM, 293.39, 293.05, 337.09; and a GET of 103:58:25.

103:44:48 Shepard:Okay.

103:44:59 CC:Kitty Hawk and Antares , you have a GO for undock.

103:45:06 Mitchell:Okay.

103:45:07 Roosa:Kitty Hawk; Roger.

103:45:09 CC:Okay. And I'd just like to reiterate some words I think you got passed from Bruce earlier. If the nominal undock does not take place after you get things damped out again, we need 5 seconds of minus-X thrusted by both vehicles. And Kitty Hawk should call the thrusting on and off.

103:45:37 Roosa:Okay. You want 5 seconds. We were told 3 before, but - Okay, we want each one a minus 5 seconds while I'm holding the switch.

103:45:48 CC:That's affirmative, Stu. And you should call the on and off command.

103:45:55 Roosa:Okay. I'm going to try the nominal first.

103:45:58 CC:That's affirmative.

103:46:01 Roosa:And we're free.

103:46:15 Roosa:Okay. Antares, how do you read on VOX?

103:46:18 CC:Loud and clear.

103:46:20 Mitchell:Okay, loud and clear.

103:46:21 Shepard:Loud and clear.

103:46:23 Roosa:Okay.

103:46:25 Mitchell:Okay. TAPE RECORDER'S, ON, S-BAND. What's that? Houston, I have you locked up on the steerable.

103:46:50 CC:Roger, Ed.

103:46:59 Shepard:Okay, let me keep you on it now.

103:47:04 Roosa:Okay.

103:47:12 Shepard:Got to keep the - hold off on it ?until you do.

103:47:16 Mitchell:Give me about 5 seconds, Stu. Need another 5 seconds.

103:47:20 Roosa:Okay. I'm showing 10. We'll make it 15.

103:47:24 Mitchell:Okay. Good.

103:47:27 Shepard:Give me BIOMED, LEFT; PCM, HI.

103:47:31 Roosa:Okay. They're zero. Will you be ready to go at 5? Are you ready, Al?

103:47:37 Shepard:Okay. We're ready.

103:47:38 Mitchell:GO.

103:47:39 Shepard:We're ready, go.

103:47:41 Roosa:Okay. Okay, you're moving out - -

103:47:45 Shepard-LM:We're clear - -

103:47:46 Roosa:- - and you're hanging on the end of the probe. We'll wait until motions damp here. Okay, we seem real steady. I'm going to back off from you.

103:48:00 Shepard-LM:Okay.

103:48:03 Mitchell-LM:Beautiful.

103:48:04 Shepard-LM:Very good.

103:48:12 Roosa:Okay, we had a normal undocking, Houston.

103:48:20 Shepard-LM:Okay. DEAD BAND MIN; VERB 77; go to P00.

103:48:42 Shepard-LM:Okay. Yaw left 60, pitch up 90.

103:48:46 Mitchell-LM:Okay, starting left yaw, Stu.

103:48:48 Roosa:Okay. Boy , you look mighty pretty out there.

103:48:57 Mitchell-LM:And starting the pitchup.

103:49:06 Shepard-LM:Yaw right 60, yaw left 60, pitch up 90.

103:49:11 CC:And, Antares; Houston. We've lost data on you now. We'd like your - what you ended up with in NOUN 83.

103:49:23 Mitchell-LM:Roger. We ended up with 1 - plus 0.1, minus point - minus 0.1, plus 0.1, and 0.

103:49:36 CC:Roger, Ed.

103:49:38 Mitchell-LM:Houston, you reading? Minus 0.1, minus 0.1, and 0.

103:49:43 CC:Okay. Minus 0.1, minus 0.1, and 0.

103:50:06 Mitchell-LM:Houston. I have you back on the OMNIs. It doesn't seem to be tracking.

103:50:11 CC:Roger, Antares.

103:50:20 Mitchell-LM:I'll give you LOW bit rate, if you want it.

103:50:31 CC:Okay, Antares. You can stay in HI.

103:50:36 Mitchell-LM:Roger.

103:51:02 Roosa:Okay, Al. You're around - you want me to verify your tracker light? And it's loud and clear.

103:51:19 Shepard-LM:Okay, Stu. We have you and have the camera on, and you look mighty pretty out there.

103:51:24 Roosa:Yes. I've been taking a few shots of you there. Pretty LMPressive. Okay, DAC going OFF.

103:52:25 CC:And, Kitty Hawk; Houston. BMAG is rate 2.

103:52:32 Roosa:Roger.

103:53:00 Mitchell-LM:Houston, Antares. You're back on the steerable.

103:53:03 CC:Roger, Antares. And I got a REV 12 TCA for you.

103:53:11 Mitchell-LM:Roger. Stand by 1.

103:54:22 Mitchell-LM:Houston, Antares. I'd like to recheck those gimbal angles with you again, please.

103:54:28 CC:Okay. Go ahead, Antares.

103:54:34 Mitchell-LM:I'm little bit rushed here. Let me just give you the command module and LM angles again. Command module, 007.69, 113.04, 022.88; and'LM, I had 293.39, 293.05, 337.09.

103:55:01 CC:Okay, Antares. I copied command module: ' 007.69, 113.04, 022.88; LM: 293.39, 293.05, 337-09; and the GET was 103:58:25.

103:55:28 Mitchell-LM:That's correct, Fred. Thank you.

103:55:32 Shepard-LM:Fred, I'm ready for the ... - REV 12 TCA.

103:55:51 CC:And, Antares; Houston. The TCA was 104:59:38. And we'd like to get the steerable again; PITCH, plus 66; YAW, minus 43.

103:56:23 Mitchell-LM:Okay, Fredo. You have the steerable again. Be advised, it seems to track for a few minutes, and then breaks lock, and then heads for the stop.

103:56:31 CC:Roger, Ed. The last loss there was due to a problem we had on the site on the ground here.

103:56:41 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

103:56:47 CC:And, Antares, did you copy the TCA time?

103:56:53 Shepard-LM:Roger. 104:59:38.

103:56:56 CC:Very good.

103:57:35 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. OMNI Alfa.

103:57:46 Roosa:Okay. You got OMNI Alfa, Houston.

103:57:50 CC:Roger, Stu.

104:00:01 Mitchell-LM:Houston, Antares. We'll proceed with the DPS throttle check, if you're ready.

104:00:14 CC:Roger, Antares. That'll be all right, and, if you give us P00 and DATA, we'll pump you up a command module state vector.

104:00:25 Mitchell-LM:You have it, and we're proceeding with the throttle check.

104:00:29 CC:Roger.

104:00:53 Mitchell-LM:Okay. ENGINE STOP, push. We have a light.

104:01:11 Mitchell-LM:Okay, Houston'. Engine is armed, and we go with the Commander's MIN, soft stop; MAX; back to MIN. Here we go with the LMP. It's in MIN, soft stop; and going to MAX.

104:02:11 CC:Antares, the throttle check looks good.

104:02:16 Mitchell-LM:Okay; ARM, OFF.

104:02:22 CC:Antares, Houston. The computer is yours.

104:02:28 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Thank you.

104:03:04 CC:And, Antares; Houston. You can proceed on by the program alarm.

104:03:11 Mitchell-LM:Okay , thank you.

104:11:54 Mitchell-M:Houston, Antares.

104:11:58 CC:Go ahead, Antares.

104:12:03 Mitchell-LM:Roger. We're going over Hipparchus L and Hipparchus C at 8 minutes before the landing site. Looks just like the map.

104:12:13 CC:Roger, Ed.

104:12:56 Shepard-LM:Okay. We got Albategnius on the left.

104:13:04 CC:Roger, A1.

104:13:13 Mitchell-LM:We have Hipparchus J on the right as we're going over it. It looks like it's right below us, about 1000 feet. Instead of 40. This is Muller ahead of us, Muller A on the left, Muller 0 first. Hipparchus K out to the right.

104:13:37 CC:Look's like you're right on the line.

104:13:42 Mitchell-LM:Yes; we sure are.

104:13:53 Mitchell-LM:Fred, I don't see how we could clear that ridge ahead of us; it sticks up so far.

104:14:12 Shepard-LM:Okay, Ptolemaeus A on the left.

104:14:17 CC:Roger, A1.

104:14:31 Mitchell-LM:We look like we're at about - about a foot above it, and Stu's below us. Here's Herschel out -Herschel out to the right.

104:15:54 Mitchell-IM:And the camera is started, Fredo, as we cross Lalande N and NA.

104:16:00 CC:Roger, Ed.

104:16:07 Mitchell-LM:Might even get a picture of Stu ahead of us; we're crossing Lalande C.

104:16:13 CC:Okay.

104:18:03 Mitchell-LM:Okay, Fredo. We're coming over Turner Crater. Looks just like on the map as we approach the site.

104:18:11 CC:Roger, Ed.

104:18:27 CC:Do you have about the same picture with respect to the shadows on those ridges up ahead, Ed, as the map?

104:18:36 Mitchell-LM:They don't seem quite as long as on the map, Fredo.

104:18:41 CC:Okay.

104:20:27 Shepard-LM:Okay, Houston. We've spotted the general area of the landing site from in this area on in. We didn't spot Cone Crater on this pass, however.

104:20:38 CC:Okay, Al. We'll get a look at it a couple passes lat er.

104:20:52 Shepard-LM:And, Fredo, as we come up on Lansberg here, it's -the terminator is running right across it. And it was a big one. It really has some - a steep rim -or rather a high rim, very noticeably high rim from here - from here. And it's right - the terminator goes right through it.

104:21:32 CC:And, Antares, Houston. You can use the same LOS procedures on the steerable.

104:21:41 Shepard-LM:Okay.

104:22:02 Roosa:Okay, Houston. How do you read Kitty Hawk?

104:22:05 CC:Loud and clear, Kitty Hawk.

104:22:11 Roosa:Okay, that pass went just as advertised. I think we've got plenty of marks on it.

104:22:18 CC:Very good, Stu.

104:22:58 Roosa:Antares, Kitty Hawk.

104:23:00 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead.

104:23:01 Roosa:Okay. I'm going to be setting up for ranging SLMPLEX B.

104:23:05 Mitchell-LM:Okay, we're right on the time line.

104:23:09 Roosa:Okay.

104:23:33 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

104:23:34 Roosa:Say again, Ed. Go ahead, Houston.

104:23:39 CC:Roger, Kitty Hawk. We'd like to crank up the HIGH GAIN. PITCH, minus 87; YAW, plus 281; MANUAL and WIDE so we can get a tape dump.

104:23:53 Roosa:Okay, minus 87, and say again the YAW?

104:23:57 CC:YAW, plus 281.

104:24:02 Roosa:281.

104:24:11 Roosa:Okay. I read 0.53. No, make that 0.55; mine keep: varying a little bit.

104:25:34 Mitchell-LM:Okay, Stu. We'll take ...

104:25:44 Roosa:Okay, I'm reading 0.57.

104:25:51 Mitchell-LM:0.57. Thank you.

104:26:47 Roosa:Okay.

104:26:58 Mitchell-LM:Houston - Houston, Antares.

104:27:01 CC:Roger, Antares.

104:27:06 Mitchell-LM:My S-BAND ANTENNA circuit breaker has popped twice now. I think that may be the reason we're breaking lock occasionally. We got some problems in it

104:27:15 CC:Okay, Ed. Is that the AC or, on your side, the DC one?

104:27:21 Mitchell-LM:No, that's the DC one on panel 16.

104:27:23 CC:Okay.

104:27:27 Mitchell-LM:Seems like it might be overheating on us, probably.

104:28:26 Mitchell-LM:Okay, Houston. I'm locked up again. The circuit breaker is holding for the moment.

104:28:30 CC:Roger, Ed.

104:29:16 Roosa:Houston, Kitty Hawk. Did you get the torquing angles?

104:29:22 CC:And negative, Kitty Hawk.

104:29:27 Roosa:Okay. Ready to copy?

104:29:29 CC:Go ahead, Stu.

104:29:37 Roosa:Okay. 000.30, minus 000.38, plus 000.28; torque at 105:08:40.

104:29:57 CC:Okay, Antares; Houston. We'd like you to back out of that 52. We need to look at a bit here.

104:30:07 Mitchell-LM:Roger. Do you have some pads ready for me this pass, Fred?

104:30:15 CC:Okay. They're coming up in a minute, Ed. You ready to copy a couple of steps here?

104:30:25 Mitchell-LM:Yes. Go ahead.

104:30:26 CC:Okay. We'd like a VERB 11 NOUN 10 ENTER, 30 ENTER.

104:30:37 Mitchell-LM:You got it.

104:30:57 Mitchell-LM:You read the DSKY, Houston.

104:31:02 CC:Antares, Houston. What we're looking at there is the abort bit, and it looks set. And we'd like to proceed with the following to reset it.

104:31:13 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Give me the word.

104:31:15 CC:Okay. We need the STOP pushbutton, push. And the next thing is the ABORT pushbutton, depress. And wait on that one.

104:31:28 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Standing by on that one.

104:31:34 CC:Okay. I meant you can go ahead and press the ABORT button, Ed; but stand by for our word on the reset.

104:31:45 Mitchell-LM:Okay. It's set.

104:31:48 CC:Okay. Stand by.

104:32:08 CC:Antares, Houston. You can reset the ABORT pushbutton.

104:32:15 Mitchell-LM:Okay. It's reset.

104:32:25 CC:Okay. You can reset the STOP button - -

104:32:27 Mitchell-LM:..., Fredo?

104:32:29 CC:You can reset the STOP button now, Ed, and press on with the P52.

104:32:36 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

104:32:37 Shepard-LM:Okay. STOP button is reset.

104:32:40 CC:Okay. And back to Kitty Hawk now. I missed the sign on your first torque angle there, Stu.

104:32:52 Roosa:Okay. It was plus 000.30.

104:32:56 CC:Okay. I copy plus 00.30, minus 000.38, plus 000.28, at 105:08:40. And we need WIDE BEAM correction on that. We need MEDIUM, Stu. MEDIUM for the dump.

104:33:22 Roosa:Okay. Read me your - the first torquing angle again, Fred.

104:33:27 CC:Okay. I copied plus 000.30.

104:33:32 Roosa:Okay. That's correct. And I'm in MANUAL and MEDIUM.

104:33:37 CC:Very good.

104:34:08 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We'd like P00 and ACCEPT, and I got some pads ready for your CIRC.

104:34:18 Roosa:Okay. Is that Kitty Hawk, Fred?

104:34:20 CC:That's affirm.

104:34:21 Roosa:For the P00 and ACCEPT.

104:34:23 CC:That's affirm. P00 and ACCEPT, Kitty Hawk.

104:34:25 Roosa:Okay. You have P00 and - you have P00 and ACCEPT, Houston. I'm ready to copy pads.

104:34:35 CC:Okay. CIRC pad, SPS/G&N; 36l16; minus 0.8l, plus 0.19; 105:51:48.11; plus 0070.2, plus all zips, minus 0029.6; 000, 130, 359; 0063.3, plus 0055-5; 0076.2, 0:04, 0062.9. The rest of the column N/A. Sirius and Rigel; 127, 148, 015; two jets, 16 seconds, quads B and D.

104:35:58 Roosa:Okay, Fred. Copy CIRC, SPS/G&N; 36l16; minus 0.81, plus 0.19; 105:51:48.11; plus 0070.2, all zips, minus 0029.6; 000, 130, 359; 0063.3, plus 0055*5; 0076.2, 0:04, 0062.9. Understand no sextant star; Sirius and Rigel; 127, 148, 015; two jets, 16 seconds, quads B and D.

104:36:51 CC:Okay. That was a good readback, Kitty Hawk. And Antares, did you copy the NOUN 33 and NOUN 8l?

104:37:01 Mitchell-LM:That's affirmative, but confirm the time and DELTA-V , plus or minus. Zi

104:37:21 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk. We'd like for you to get the steerable again. PITCH, minus 86; YAW, 251; and AFT OMNI for Antares.

104:37:39 Mitchell-LM:Okay, Fredo. Your AFT OMNI. And please confirm again the sign of DELTA-V for NOUN 84, Zi

104:37:49 CC:Okay. DELTA-V is a minus 0029*6. LJ

104:37:58 Mitchell-LM:Understand, minus 0029*6.

104:38:21 CC:Okay. And, Kitty Hawk - Kitty Hawk; Houston.

104:39:55 Roosa:Okay. 14-1; 106:49:28, 106:54:18, 106:55:58, 106:56:46, south 2.

104:40:11 CC:Good readback.

104:40:20 CC:Antares, Houston.

104:40:25 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead, Houston.

104:40:27 CC:Okay. I got a PDIQ pad here for you, Ed. And would you verify your AFT OMNI?

104:40:36 Mitchell-LM:I'll verify AFT OMNI, but we're doing a P52 right now. Can you hold it?

104:40:41 CC:Okay, we only got about 4 minutes and 18 seconds to LOS, now.

104:41:13 Mitchell-LM:Okay, Fred. Ready to copy PDIQ.

104:41:17 CC:Okay, and some of this is for Kitty Hawk as well. Are you ready to copy. Stu?

104:41:26 Roosa:I'm standing by, Fredo.

104:41:28 CC:Okay, PDIq- ALFA: 106:47:24.57; Bravo: plus 0101.9, plus all zips, plus 0001.7, 0139.0, plus 0007.9, 0101.9, 036, 000, 288, plus 0101.8, plus all zips, plus 0002.9; Charlie: 107:48:30.00; Delta: 109:35, all zips. And the throttle profile is 10 percent for 15 seconds, 40 percent for the remainder of the burn.

104:42:43 Mitchell-LM:Okay, readback. 106:47:24.57; Bravo: plus 0101.9, plus all zeros, plus 0001.7, 0139.0, plus 0007.9, 0101.9, 036, 000, 288, plus 0101.8, plus all zeros, plus 0002.9; 107 - this is Charlie now, 107:48:30.00; Delta: 109:35, all zeros. Throttle profile, 10 percent, 15 seconds, the remainder at 40.

104:43:28 CC:Good readback, Ed.

104:43:34 Roosa:And Kitty Hawk copies.

104:43:36 CC:Roger. And Kitty Hawk, you are go for CIRC.

104:43:41 Roosa:Roger. Go for CIRC.

104:43:49 Roosa:And, Fredo, I assume you're through with the computer.

104:43:52 CC:That's affirm; it's your computer, Kitty Hawk.

104:44:11 CC:Antares, Houston.

104:44:22 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead, Houston.

104:44:23 CC:Okay, before you go around the corner here, or after you go around the corner, would you select SECONDARY TRANSMITTER/RECEIVER on the S-RAND, and try us on that one when you come back around?

104:44:36 Mitchell-LM:Is that for Antares?

104:44:38 CC:That's for Antares.

104:44:42 Mitchell-LM:Okay, we'll get it going around the corner.

104:44:45 CC:Roger, Ed.

104:45:00 Mitchell-LM:Hey, Houston. Clarify SECONDARY TRANSPONDER ...

104:45:08 CC:And, Antares; Houston. That's SECONDARY TRANS-MITTER/RECEIVER; stick on the PRIMARY POWER AMP.

105:11:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 13

105:32:38 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

105:32:43 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston. ...

105:32:47 CC:Okay. You're way down in the mud, Stu. Can you get us a HIGH GAIN? PITCH, minus 71; YAW, plus 175; and use the normal acquisition routine.

105:33:10 Roosa:Okay. How now, Fred?

105:33:13 CC:Loud and clear.

105:33:19 Roosa:Okay. The burn was on time. It was a G&N shutdown with a 2-foot-per-second overburn. I backed that off 1 foot by residuals after trimming for a minus 1.0, minus 0, plus 0.5. The attitude in which I trimmed was 353, 127, 005. CMC shows the orbit 63.9, 56.0.

105:34:35 CC:Okay; Kitty Hawk. The HIGH GAIN YAW is 197 and copied burn on time, G&N shutdown; NOUN 85 after trim were minus 1.0, minus 0, plus 0.5. And, you trimmed at attitude 353, 127, 005; and you ended up with a 63.9 by 56.0. And did you give a DELTA-V ? c

105:35:06 Roosa:Roger. The DELTA-V^ was a minus 14.7 after - prior to trim. And, as I was cleaning up the main bus ties, it jumped around a little bit. And, after trim, it's reading a minus 12.8. It's really -doesn't figure too closely; I backed off 1 foot.

105:35:27 CC:Roger.

105:35:57 CC:Antares, Houston.

105:35:59 Mitchell-LM:Houston, Antares. How do you read?

105:36:01 CC:Loud and clear. We'd like to get QUANTITY switch, OFF.

105:36:09 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Getting QUANTITY, OFF.

105:36:25 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

105:36:50 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Go OMNI Bravo. Would you relay, Antares?

105:36:59 Shepard-LM:Roger, Ed.

105:37:01 Mitchell-LM:Kitty Hawk, go OMNI Bravo.

105:37:08 Shepard-LM:Houston, Antares. Ready with NOUN 93.

105:37:12 CC:Okay. Go ahead, Al.

105:37:19 Shepard-LM:Okay. NOUN 93: plus 097, plus 062, minus 013; GET, 105:26:40; LPD CAL azimuth 0; elevation, down 1 degree.

105:37:49 CC:Okay, Antares. Copy; NOUN 93: plus 097, plus 062, minus 013; and you torqued at 105:26:40; LPD CAL azimuth 0; elevation, down 1. And I'd like to get from Ed the AGS GYRO CAL numbers 544 through 546.

105:38:18 Mitchell-LM:Okay. You have your initial numbers don't you, Fredo?

105:38:24 CC:Stand by.

105:38:36 Roosa:And, Houston; Kitty Hawk. I've started a CHARGE on BATTERY B.

105:38:42 CC:Roger, Stu. And, Ed, I guess we need both the initial and the final.

105:38:49 Mitchell-LM:Okay. I'll read the initial first: 540, minus 10; 4l, plus 0; 542, plus 02; 544, minus 06; 545, minus 23; 546, minus 187. The CAL numbers: 540, minus 10; 54l, minus 1; 542, plus 2; 544, minus 07; 545, plus 0; 546, minus 16l.

105:39:36 CC:Okay. We copied, Antares.

105:39:42 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

105:40:11 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We'd like P00 and ACCEPT.

105:40:18 Roosa:Okay. You have it.

105:41:01 CC:Okay. And, Antares; Houston.

105:41:03 Mitchell-LM:Antares, We're proceeding with a DPS pressurization checkout.

105:41:09 :Okay. And, Antares, we're showing the abort bit set again, and we're working on a procedure to reset it. And, also, another procedure to lock it out after starting PDI.

105:41:29 Mitchell-LM:Okay. That'll be great, thank you. We're pressing on with the DPS pressurization.

105:41:52 CC:Okay. Antares, you can go ahead with the DPS pressurization.

105:41:59 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

105:45:38 CC:Antares, Houston.

105:45:46 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead.

105:45:49 CC:Okay. I see you're back to P00 now. We'd like to do a VERB 11 NOUN 10 ENTER; 30 ENTER; and look at that bit again.

105:46:05 Mitchell-LM:Okay. VERB 11 NOUN 10.

105:46:21 Roosa:Houston, Kitty Hawk. Are you through with the computer?

105:46:23 CC:Roger, Kitty Hawk. And, while we've got that display up, Ed, could you tap on the panel around the ABORT pushbutton and see if we can shake something loose?

105:46:51 Mitchell-LM:Yes, Houston, it just changed while I was tapping there.

105:46:54 CC:You sure tap nicely.

105:47:00 Mitchell-LM:I'm pretty good at that.

105:47:09 CC:Okay. Antares, we'd like to kind of sit here a minute and watch it.

105:47:18 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

105:50:03 CC:Antares, Houston.

105:50:07 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead.

105:50:08 CC:Okay, why don't y'all proceed on, Ed, with the landing radar checkout?

105:50:15 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

105:52:42 Roosa:... loud and clear ...

105:52:43 CC:- - him, Ed, if I don't get through to him. You ready for PDI?

105:52:50 Mitchell-LM:Roger. Fred, he's reading you loud and clear, and he is on OMNI Bravo.

105:52:54 CC:Roger. Okay, here we go. India.

105:52:58 Mitchell-LM:I'm ready for the pad.

105:53:00 CC:Roger. India.

106:00:18 CC:Okay. That was a good readback, Ed.

106:00:25 Roosa:And, Houston; Kitty Hawk. Got all the pads.

106:00:29 CC:Roger, Kitty Hawk.

106:00:56 CC:Antares, Houston. Could you give us P00 and DATA?

106:01:23 CC:Antares, Houston. How do you read?

106:01:37 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead, Houston.

106:01:38 CC:Okay, Ed. We'd like P00 and DATA, so we can start uplinking you.

106:01:49 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Okay. You have it.

106:02:01 CC:Roger, Antares.

106:06:23 CC:Antares, Houston. The computer is yours.

106:06:28 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

106:06:50 CC:Antares, Houston. And don't uplink too fast; proceed on by the alarm.

106:06:57 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

106:08:13 Mitchell-LM:Houston, Antares. The LPD altitude shows 49,000.

106:08:21 CC:Roger, Antares. LPD altitude, 49,000.

106:08:30 Mitchell-LM:That's correct.

106:13:10 Shepard-LM:Okay, I have Cone Crater, Triplet, and Doublet. They all look just like they're supposed to.

106:13:17 CC:Very good, A1.

106:13:23 Shepard-LM:And Star - Look right down there - right straight down - -

106:13:26 Mitchell-LM:Got them, yes, sure do.

106:13:31 Shepard-LM:Yoo-ha! I think we'll know it next time, Fredo.

106:13:33 CC:Very good.

106:13:38 Mitchell-LM:There they were right below us, big as life.

106:15:07 Shepard-LM:Houston from Antares. The landing Sun angle looks very good for the next time around.

106:15:13 CC:Roger, Al.

106:16:59 Mitchell-LM:Yes, sir. Fredo, the LNA really looks clear today

106:17:07 CC:Really does, huh?

106:17:27 Mitchell-LM:Fredo, I guess you'll advise us on that abort that - when we come round next time.

106:17:32 CC:Yes, I'm working up a little spiel right now, Al.

106:17:37 Shepard-LM:Okay.

106:18:26 Roosa:Okay, Fredo. Tracking on 14-1 went real well. I trust you got the data and ...

106:18:33 CC:Stand by 1.

106:19:52 CC:Antares , Houston. We'd like you to check the WATER SEP handle and make sure it's all the way in.

106:19:59 Mitchell-LM:Okay, Fred, I'll get to it in just a minute.

106:20:01 CC:Okay.

106:21:41 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. OMNI Alfa.

106:22:21 Mitchell-LM:Houston, Antares. I verified that the WATER SEP handle is all the way in.

106:22:25 CC:Roger, Ed.

106:23:40 CC:Okay, Antares, Houston.

106:23:47 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead.

106:23:48 CC:Okay, Ed. That bit just showed up again. Wonder if you could try tapping the panel there by the ABORT switch again.

106:23:59 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

106:24:20 Mitchell-LM:Anything yet, Fredo?

106:24:23 CC:Okay, Ed. You did good work again.

106:24:31 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

106:25:19 Mitchell-LM:Houston, Antares.

106:25:24 CC:Antares, Houston. Go ahead.

106:25:29 Mitchell-LM:Hello, Tom. Do you think we're going to come up with something on this problem with the ABORT button?

106:25:35 CC:Roger. We're working it right now and also MIT's working it. Needless to say, we're busy here, but we think we got a solution.

106:25:44 Mitchell-LM:Good enough. Something - is it something like a solder ball?

106:25:48 CC:Well, we don't know yet. We got about 19 minutes until loss of signal here, so we'll have something to you before then, and we'll have some time to pick it up on the other side.

106:25:58 Mitchell-LM:Thank you, Tom. ?

106:25:59 CC:Roger. Kitty Hawk, Houston.

106:26:08 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

106:26:09 CC:Roger. Got a map update, REV 14.

106:26:19 Roosa:Okay. Go ahead.

106:26:20 CC:Okay; 180 degrees, 107:49:38; LOS, 107:24:39-

106:26:38 Roosa:Okay; 180, 107:49:38; LOS, 107:24:39-

106:26:44 CC:That's affirmative. And we have an LTC photo pad, 16. Roll, 000; pitch - -

106:26:52 Roosa:Okay.

106:26:53 CC:- - 303; yaw, 000; T-start, 108:37:36; T-stop, 108:47:43; range 1, 91-4; range 2, 91-1- Over.

106:27:20 Roosa:Okay. LTC pad 16; 000, 303, 000; 108:37:36; 108:47:43; 91-4; 91-1- Sounds like they got the first team in down there.

106:27:38 CC:Yes. We got the original CAP COMM down here today. Okay. Let me give you an LTC pad for target 12, also.

106:27:49 Roosa:Okay.

106:27:50 CC:Okay.

106:27:51 Roosa:Stand by just 1.

106:27:55 CC:Roll, 000 --

106:27:56 Roosa:Okay. Go ahead.

106:27:58 CC:Roger. Roll, 000; pitch, 162.4; yaw, 000; T-start, 108:53:29; T-stop, 108:54:29; range, 94.1. Over.

106:28:26 Roosa:Roger. 000; 108:53:29; 108:54:29; 94.1. And I've got a question on the Hycon. This morning Bruce started to give me some procedures they wanted me to troubleshoot with. He never finished, and we never got a chance to get back together again; and I think we ought to pick out a convenient time here and run over those. I've got the camera out, and, as I get a chance, I'll try to run through the procedures.

106:29:02 CC:Okay. We've got that down here in a stack we've got by - back to you momentarily on it. One correction on the range; it was 94.4.

106:29:16 Roosa:Okay. 94.4 - -

106:29:18 CC:Roger.

106:29:19 Roosa:- - on LTC photo pad 12.

106:29:20 CC:Roger.

106:29:32 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. I tell you we're going to keep the air clear with you most of the time until LOS so we can be talking to Antares. Over.

106:29:43 Roosa:Roger. I was thinking maybe if - can you bring up the other loop to talk to me on?

106:29:50 CC:Yes. Okay. We're kind of busy here. We'll see about it.

106:29:57 Roosa:Okay. Whatever's customary.

106:30:07 CC:Antares, Houston.

106:30:13 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead.

106:30:14 CC:Okay, Ed, you and A1 ready to listen to some words on the abort bit business?

106:30:24 Mitchell-LM:Roger. We sure are. And did you get our torquing angles?

106:30:32 CC:That's affirm, Ed. Okay, Ed. And before I start in here, would you try tapping the panel again? The abort bit came back.

106:30:55 CC:Okay. You tapped it right again, Ed.

106:31:02 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

106:31:03 CC:Okay. I guess you've surmised already that we have some sort of a contamination in the ABORT switch. And the LMPlications of that bit being set, I guess you also realize, means that in 63 we're going to find ourselves in P70.

106:31:27 CC:Okay, so - -

106:31:28 Shepard:..., Fred.

106:31:30 CC:Say again, Ed. How do you read me now, Ed?

106:31:38 Mitchell-LM:That's affirm. We read you. Go ahead.

106:31:40 CC:Okay, Did you hear my last about the LMPlications of that bit being set?

106:31:48 Mitchell-LM:That's affirm. We understand.

106:31:49 CC:Okay. So, directly, I'll be giving you some - -

106:31:52 Shepard-LM:Affirmative.

106:31:53 CC:Roger, Al. I'll be giving you some changes to the time line here, whereby we'll be starting initiating PDI in PNGS, ATT HOLD, and MANUAL THROTTLE. The next consideration is if the bit sets during ullage, your procedure will be: STOP pushbutton to set and exit P63, or rather P70 in this case. And we'll have some further words on how you're to do that exit.

106:32:36 Shepard-LM:Okay. We understand the strategy, I believe.

106:32:38 CC:Okay. Then we - we got some more. Assuming we -we get by ignition, like you to copy the following procedures.

106:32:54 Shepard-LM:Stand by 1, Fred. And, while he's getting something to write on, I understand that you're going to be looking at the - you want us to be looking at the bit during the ullage cycle?

106:33:12 CC:Negative, Al. You'll get the program switched to P70, which is your cue. We'll be - we'll be looking at it down here, too, to pass the word up.

106:33:26 Shepard-LM:Okay. I misunderstood you. I understand. We just go to a regular 63. Okay.

106:33:29 CC:Okay. I just got corrected, Al. The switch to P70 would occur at ignition, at ignition.

106:33:40 Shepard-LM:Okay. I understand.

106:33:42 Mitchell-LM:Okay, Fred. Do I have enough room to write just in the space on my PDI chart?

106:33:47 CC:Stand by. Okay. You mean the time line, Ed, or your pad?

106:34:06 Mitchell-LM:The time line.

106:34:13 CC:All right, Ed - -

106:34:14 Mitchell-LM:... room on the DPS burn card, Fred. Go ahead with it.

106:34:17 CC:Okay. The procedure is VERB 25 NOUN 7 ENTER; 105 ENTER; 400 ENTER; 0 ENTER.

106:34:55 Mitchell-LM:Okay. I'll read back. VERB 25 NOUN 07 ENTER; 05 ENTER. Is it 4000 ENTER? 0 ENTER.

106:35:08 CC:Okay, Ed. It's - it's VERB 25 NOUN 7 ENTER. Then, 105 ENTER; 400, four zero zero, ENTER; 0 ENTER.

106:35:25 Mitchell-LM:Okay. VERB 25 NOUN 07 ENTER; 105 ENTER; 400 ENTER; 0 ENTER. And when do I do this?

106:35:34 CC:Okay. You can do this as soon as you can after ignition. We're trying to get this into - before there's any chance of the bit getting set in this interval.

106:35:49 Mitchell-LM:Okay. We have to let P63 call up normally, get ignition in ATT HOLD, MANUAL THROTTLE, and then reset the bit, hopefully, before it gets - or rather, lock out the bit, hopefully, before it gets set. Is that right?

106:36:03 CC:That's affirm, Ed. And, if somehow you get hung up a little further downstream, you can go ahead and throttle up manually at 26. I'd like to explain the LMPlications of this. What we've done, then, is locked out P70 and P71, so any aborts have to be done on the AGS. And, while you got the card handle [sic] you can - I'll give you something that will reenable P70, P71.

106:36:36 Mitchell-LM:Okay. We understand, and go ahead with your work.

106:36:41 CC:Okay. It's VERB 25 NOUN 7 ENTER; 105 ENTER; 400 ENTER; 1 ENTER.

106:36:57 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Readback: VERB 25 NOUN 07 ENTER; 105 ENTER; 400 ENTER; 1 ENTER. That's all straightforward enough.

106:37:06 CC:Okay, Ed. Once we're by that initial disabling step, we got it made. We'll comment that if, in the process of your keying that in, the abort bit sets, we'll be in P70; and, if that happens, we need the same as before ignition; we'll need to stop button set and exit the program, and we'll try it on the second pass.

106:37:36 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Are you going to give me the words on exiting now?

106:37:40 CC:Okay. They're still - they're still working on that - Right. And, Antares; Houston.

106:37:58 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead.

106:37:59 CC:Okay. Assuming we get through the disabling procedure, after that time you can go back to AUTO on the THROTTLE and the MODE CONTROL switch.

106:38:15 Mitchell-LM:Understand, Fredo. Thank you.

106:38:17 CC:Okay. One other word. The same holds for any surface NO STAY. The abort there would have to be on AGS.

106:38:30 Mitchell-LM:Understand, Fred.

106:38:31 CC:Okay.

106:38:33 Shepard-LM:Roger. We understand. Sounds like you all have been busy down there.

106:39:45 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

106:39:54 Roosa:...

106:39:56 CC:Stu, I have some more words on the topo camera that may help a little. We've got about 5 minutes left to - to get the - these in if you're ready to discuss it.

106:40:21 Roosa:Okay, Gordon. Stand by just 1. Let me copy down my COAS CAL here.

106:40:25 CC:Okay.

106:40:32 Roosa:It'll keep. Go ahead. Tell me what I ought to do.

106:40:36 CC:Okay. By way of general discussion, evidently by recreating the noise here on the ground, the only way that we can recreate the noise is by causing a DC power current limit problem to the camera. An indication on board there that this is - that would really verify that it's a DC power problem would be a flickering power-on light while - while you're getting that clacking sound. But, any rate, the consensus here is that, when the camera is making the clacking sound, you're not getting good pictures. I believe you got the - about five steps about checking the panel 227 cable, and for pin damage, and reconnecting and switching the NONESSENTIAL BUS to MAIN A. Is that correct? Did you get those steps? Over.

106:41:50 Roosa:Gordon, you dropped out. Are you with me?

106:41:53 CC:Roger, Stu. Where did I drop out?

106:41:59 Roosa:Okay. Both from you and Bruce, all I've got is to check the pins and the connections to see if things look all right and - and that's as far as I've gotten with either one - Oh, and to switch the NONESSENTIAL power to the other BUS.

106:42:16 CC:Okay. That's all we can do to try to LMProve the DC power problem. However, if you have time to verify that it's not a camera shutter being out of sequence - out of synchronization, you could shut the shutter to l/200th, and remove the magazine, and visually examine the shutter curtain inside to see that the slit in the shutter curtain is within 1 inch from one of the side rails, either side. And, at that time, examine the sprocket area from visible tears in the shutter curtain sprocket holes. After checking, if it is on one side, reinstall the magazine - and use magazine W for this - and actuate one single frame, and remove the magazine, and check that the slit is still positioned over to the side. If the slit is remaining in the center, then the camera shutter is completely out of SYNC and the camera is essentially unusable. Is that clear? Over.

106:43:42 Roosa:Yes, I believe I've got that, Gordon. I'll put in magazine W, l/200th, and I guess fire a frame; remove the magazine, look at the slit, see if it's an inch from the side rail; then I guess I'll see some sprockets in there. And then if it is 1 inch, I'll put the magazine back in, fire another frame, check that the slit is still there. If it's out in the center somewhere, well then, we've got big problems.

106:44:10 CC:Okay. We're just about to LOS. If this looks okay, then prepare the camera according to the normal procedures. Set the mode switch to AUTO, and do not use standby position. Just start the camera by turning the power on while the switch is in AUTO.

106:44:38 CC:And, Stu, one last thing. If the clacking starts, turn the power switch off and then back on, and that may stop it.

107:08:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 14

107:28:14 CC:Antares, Houston.

107:28:19 Shepard-IM:Go ahead, Houston.

107:28:23 CC:Okay. Read you loud and clear. And we got some more procedures to pump up that are going to alter what you already copied, and Ed might ought to get something a little bigger than the DPS card to write this down.

107:28:45 Shepard-LM:Okay, stand by. Let's get locked up on the main load first.

107:28:48 CC:Okay.

107:29:08 Shepard-IM:Now, in the meantime, do you still read me?

107:29:11 CC:Roger, Al.

107:29:16 Shepard-IM:Okay, ASCENT BATs went on at 108:01:45.

107:29:24 CC:Roger. 108:01:45.

107:29:35 Shepard-LM:And NOUN 93's as follows: plus 40, minus 52, minus 16.

107:29:45 CC:Okay. Copied plus 40, minus 52, and minus 16.

107:29:53 Shepard-LM:That's right. ..., 107:08:30.

107:30:00 CC:107:08:30.

107:30:12 CC:Okay, Antares; Houston. And, before we start here, the bit is set again; could you - You still there, Antares?

107:30:46 Shepard-IM:Okay, I believe we're locked up now, Houston.

107:30:53 CC:Okay, Antares; Houston. If you get locked up there, you might just stay in SLEW.

107:31:04 Shepard-LM:Okay, and we're locked up in AUTO TRACK, now.

107:31:08 CC:Okay. I don't know if you heard, the bit appeared to be set again, and we need you to rap on the panel again by the ABORT button.

107:31:40 CC:Okay, Antares. The bit is reset. And, are you still reading now?

107:31:50 Shepard-LM:That's affirmative.

107:31:51 CC:Okay, Al. The - the reason for the - some changes I'm ... to feed you up on the procedure is, we found, in the interim of time around the backside there, a little slicker way of doing this. And what it does is allows us to start PDI in the right configuration, switchvise. And, we can make an entry before we get to ullage or ignition that will get by that problem area.

107:32:26 Shepard-LM:Sounds very good. Go ahead; we're ready.

107:32:36 CC:Okay. And in the interim here, Antares, could you give us P00 and DATA, so we could start getting the uplinks - in?

107:32:44 Shepard-LM:Okay. You have P00 and DATA.

107:32:49 Mitchell-LM:And, Fred, I am having to stay on the OMNIs. I'm ... the S-BAND ANTENNA circuit breaker.

107:32:55 CC:Okay, Ed. The first is after P63 selected and you're to NOUN 92, which, in the time line, is right up - correction NOUN 62 which is right after your ENTER at minus 4 minutes.

107:33:41 CC:Okay, Antares. I've got a lot of static in the background here. How do you read?

107:33:47 Mitchell-LM:Loud and clear. Keep going.

107:33:49 CC:Okay. After the ENTER and check DET, Ed; we need a VERB 21 NOUN 01 ENTER; 10 10 ENTER; 107 ENTER.

107:34:22 Mitchell-LM:Okay, Fred, I understand. After P63 is NOUN 9 -NOUN 62. At about 4 minutes, we want to ENTER VERB 21 NOUN 1; 101 ENTER; 107 ENTER.

107:34:38 CC:Antares, Houston. Correction on your readback. It's VERB 21 NOUN 01 ENTER; 10 10 ENTER; 107 ENTER.

107:34:54 Mitchell-LM:Roger; got you. 10 10 ENTER; 107 ENTER.

107:35:01 CC:Okay, that's correct. From there on, you can follow the nominal procedures through ignition. After ignition - -

107:35:13 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

107:35:16 CC:Okay. After ignition at plus 26 seconds on the -on page 6, we need MANUAL THROTTLE, up. And, so you don't misconstrue what I'm saying, we're - we had this AUTO switch in AUTO, but we're going to manually override it to FULL THROTTLE at 26 seconds.

107:35:39 Mitchell-LM:Okay. We understand that at ignition plus 26, we will MANUAL THROTTLE up, overriding the AUTO.

107:35:47 CC:That's correct. Okay. After we - after we get by THROTTLE UP, it's VERB 25 NOUN 07 ENTER; 101 ENTER; 200 ENTER; 01 ENTER. And this will enable guidance and give you steering at that time.

107:36:23 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Understand after THROTTLE up, we ENTER VERB 25 NOUN 7; 101 ENTER; 200 ENTER; 01 ENTER. And this enables guidance steering and - at that point.

107:36:40 CC:Roger. Okay the next entry. VERB 25 NOUN 07 ENTER; 105 ENTER; 400 ENTER; 0 ENTER.

107:37:07 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Understand VERB 25 NOUN 07 ENTER; 105 ENTER; 400 ENTER; 0 ENTER. And then it looks like our procedures you gave us earlier.

107:37:18 CC:That's right, Ed. This'll disable P70, P71. Okay, the next entry: VERB 21 NOUN 01 ENTER; 10 10 ENTER: 77 ENTER.

107:37:45 Mitchell-LM:Okay. VERB 21 NOUN 01 ENTER; 10 10 ENTER; 77 ENTER.

107:37:56 CC:Okay. This gets us in the P63 and the mode REG which is - gets us right for landing radar. Now, the same words apply if an abort requirement exists. We're going to be on the AGS. And one thing maybe I didn't make clear before, is the procedure for reenabling P70 - P71. You're not to perform, unless you do abort on AGS.

107:38:35 Mitchell-LM:Roger. Roger. Understand that we will if - in the abort situation, we will abort on AGS and use the reenable procedure previously given up.

107:38:48 CC:Okay. And the only other thing I can say is, as you already know, be sure and get MANUAL THROTTLE up at 26; and after the last entry, Ed, add one more thing; we need THROTTLE to MINIMUM setting.

107:39:10 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Got that. The last entry we return to the COMMANDER'S THROTTLE to MINIMUM setting.

107:39:16 CC:That's affirm. Antares, Houston. We'd like FORWARD OMNI.

107:39:21 Shepard-LM:Hey, let me just recheck one -

107:39:27 Shepard-IM:Antares. You have FORWARD OMNI.

107:39:30 CC:Okay. I'm sorry I cut you out. Say again, Al.

107:39:50 CC:That's affirm. And also the MODE CONTROL switch to PNGS in AUTO.

107:39:57 Shepard-LM:All right, sir. Fine.

107:40:01 Mitchell-LM:Fredo, we need a few words on what you want to do with this S-band. I don't think you can fight it all the way down. Can we go with the OMNI?

107:40:10 CC:Stand by, Ed.

107:40:24 Mitchell-LM:And, Fredo, one more question. Does this procedure, now, stay ... until such time as we get the dip aids [sic] the abort disable to feed in, or do we still need to rush right along to get that in?

107:40:39 CC:Ed, this procedure is good as long as we can get by the first entry with the bit not set. That is, the entry at - right after you get NOUN 62. If you get that in with the bit not set, we're in good shape.

107:40:58 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Is the bit not set now?

107:41:05 CC:That's affirm. The bit is not set now.

107:41:11 Mitchell-LM:Okay. And I'm standing by to switch - OMNI antenna.

107:41:40 Shepard-LM:Houston, are you through with the computer?

107:41:47 CC:Antares, Houston. The computer's yours.

107:41:52 Shepard-LM:Okay.

107:42:13 Mitchell-LM:Houston, our VOICE BACKUP is giving us a hell of a squeal.

107:42:20 CC:Go ahead, Antares.

107:42:25 Mitchell-LM:I say our VOICE BACKUP position of the UPDATA LINK switch is giving us quite a squeal. You ready for us to go to UPVOICE and BACKUP now?

107:42:37 CC:Okay. Stand by 1, Ed.

107:42:55 CC:Okay, Antares. They're configured. Now, you can try it one more time, Ed.

107:43:02 Mitchell-LM:Okay. ...

107:43:04 CC:Roger.

107:43:07 CC:Kitty Hawk, Kitty Hawk, Houston. How do you read?

107:43:28 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. How do you read?

107:43:35 CC:Okay, you're way down in the mud, Stu. We're getting an awful lot of noise. We're going to drop the downlink - we're going to drop your downlink; and, if you call, call two times, so we can get it cranked back in here.

107:43:51 Roosa:Okay.

107:44:00 CC:And - Antares; Houston.

107:44:06 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead.

107:44:07 CC:Okay. And, since we dropped Kitty Hawk here, we're not going to be in that relay mode for this period; so, you probably won't get an answer from him, if you call him at 2 minutes.

107:44:22 Shepard-LM:Okay.

107:44:23 CC:Okay. I've got your downlink.

107:44:25 Shepard-LM:Okay. ... How do you read in VOX, Houston?

107:44:34 CC:Okay, Al. You're about 2 by 2.

107:44:40 Mitchell-LM:Okay. How do you read, Ed?

107:44:42 CC:Okay, Ed. You're about 3 by 3 there. You're still getting a lot of background static in.

107:44:51 Mitchell-LM:Okay - -

107:44:52 CC:Okay. Now, you're loud and clear.

107:44:53 Mitchell-LM:- - Here's your VERB 83 coming up. Very good.

107:45:07 Mitchell-LM:Yes, that looks good, 317, looks good; 383, that looks good. Let's go to 277, that looks good. Great. All right, I can start loading the AGS pad, now. 231, plus 56963; 6963. 240 is the same, plus 56963.

107:45:42 Shepard-LM:8254.

107:45:45 Mitchell-LM:8254 plus 05428.

107:45:49 Shepard-LM:Right.

107:45:50 Mitchell-LM:05428.

107:45:53 Shepard-LM:6l, plus 00037.

107:45:57 Mitchell-LM:00037, 6l, 00037 ENTER. - -

107:46:04 Shepard-LM:***62 minus.

107:46:07 Mitchell-LM:***62 minus.

107:46:10 Shepard-LM:***00147.

107:46:11 Mitchell-LM:000147 - 62, minus 00147.

107:46:16 Shepard-LM:Right. 4o4.

107:46:19 Mitchell-LM:04.

107:46:21 Shepard-LM:Minus 12345.

107:46:22 Mitchell-LM:Minus 12345.

107:46:26 Mitchell-LM:Okay. That's entered. Let me run back through them very quickly.

107:46:37 Shepard-LM:Okay.

107:46:38 Mitchell-LM:VERB ***31 read-out 56963. That's good. 240 readout, 56963. That's good. #**254 read-out - Check me on these - plus 5 - 05428.

107:46:46 Shepard-LM:GO.

107:46:47 Mitchell-LM:6l read-out, plus 00037.

107:46:52 Shepard-LM:That looks good.

107:46:53 Mitchell-LM:262 read-out, 900147.

107:46:58 Shepard-LM:Okay.

107:47:00 Mitchell-LM:And 4o4 is a large negative number. It's 12345.

107:47:04 Shepard-LM:Okay.

107:47:06 Mitchell-LM:That's good. Okay. Let's try it - -

107:47:08 Shepard-LM:Anything on minus 10.

107:47:11 Mitchell-LM:Okay. We're a little ahead of time.

107:47:15 Shepard-LM:Okay. I think, Houston, what we'll do just before we enter on the final trim is to call you to see if the bit is set at that time. Do you concur?

107:47:30 CC:Okay. It - it doesn't matter, Al. You can go ahead and make the enter and make the first entry at that time, after you get NOUN 62 up.

107:47:44 Shepard-LM:Okay. But we seem to be fairly successful at resetting by tapping; so, if it shows prior to that time, then let us know.

107:47:51 CC:Okay.

107:48:02 Mitchell-LM:Then, let me read this. At 4 minutes, that goes in, ignition plus 26 MANUAL THROTTLE.

107:48:07 Shepard-IM:All right.

107:48:08 Mitchell-IM:I'll put these other calls in Just as quick as I can get them in.

107:48:12 Shepard-LM:Yes. One right after the other. I'll tell you what1s going on.

107:48:15 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

107:48:16 CC:Ant are s, Houston.

107:48:20 Shepard-LM:Go ahead.

107:48:21 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead.

107:48:23 CC:Okay. I see you're already past that point, and we need the throttle to - THROTTLE CONTROL to AUTO.

107:48:32 Mitchell-LM:Okay. We're - we'll - we'll get it - when we've got it on our checklist, Fred. We're not quite there yet.

107:48:37 CC:Okay, Ed. And one other thing - -

107:48:39 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead and change our DPS burn?

107:48:41 CC:- - the value of 231 has changed, Ed; so, we need you to reload 231 and 240 with the following number: plus 56978. That's an update to your R0S.

107:49:00 Mitchell-LM:Roger. 56978, CLEAR 231; 56978, ENTER; ***40, plus 56978, ENTER. Okay, Fred. They are in.

107:49:22 CC:Roger, Ed.

107:49:27 Mitchell-LM:In AUTO COMMANDER. AUTO again.

107:49:42 Shepard-LM:It.went through without ... down to the point where we check out ABORT and ABORT STAGE, RESET. DEAD BAND MIN, ROT CONTROL 3.

107:49:54 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Did you get your circuit breaker to gimbal ACT.

107:49:56 Shepard-LM:Yes. They - they're all set.

107:49:58 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Let me check mine then. ...

107:50:01 Shepard-LM:I already checked yours.

107:50:02 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

107:50:06 Shepard-LM:Okay. PGNS and PGNS AUTO and AGS AUTO. Now, push button to RESET. ...

107:50:33 Mitchell-LM:Okay, how far down on the DPs configuration card now down to - -

107:50:37 Shepard-IM:There.

107:50:38 Mitchell-LM:- - down to there. Okay.

107:50:41 Shepard-LM:Through - we're through with that card.

107:50:44 Mitchell-IM:Okay.

107:50:46 Shepard-LM:Back on this one?

107:50:47 Mitchell-LM:Roger. We have 10 minutes.

107:50:48 CC:Standing by for the landing radar.

107:51:17 Shepard-LM:I'm a little early here.

107:51:21 Mitchell-LM:Fred, if you're going to give me any words on the antenna operation, I'd appreciate them very soon.

107:51:32 CC:Okay, Antares. The OMNI is GO.

107:51:38 Mitchell-IM:Okay. We're going on OMNI in 10 minutes; give me circuit breaker LANDING RADAR, closed. Check the ALTITUDE TRANSMITTER.

107:51:49 Shepard-LM:Okay. It's closed. And the VELOCITY TRANSMITTER is reading 4.0, and the ALTITUDE TRANSMITTER is reading 4.0.

107:51:55 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Let's call P63.

107:51:58 Shepard-LM:Let' s do.

107:52:10 Shepard-LM:{Humming)

107:52:24 Mitchell-LM:It looks like it's about 1 second off. Right on. Okay, timer's set. It's right on.

107:52:34 Shepard-LM:Okay.

107:52:37 Mitchell-IM:Okay. And we're looking for NOUN 63; go ahead.

107:52:41 Shepard-LM:Hold on.

107:52:50 Shepard-LM:Okay, your DPS burn card is all complete.

107:53:25 CC:Antares, Houston.

107:53:30 Mitchell-LM:Go ahead, Fredo.

107:53:31 CC:Okay, somewhere down a little past 10 minutes, Ed, we're going to need to switch to AFT OMNI. We'll try to give you a call on it.

107:53:41 Mitchell-LM:Okay, if I hear it, I'll switch - If I hear it start to break up, I'll switch it, unless you'd rather I wait for the call.

107:53:49 CC:Okay, you can go ahead and initiate it on your own, Ed. I think that'll work out better.

107:53:56 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

107:54:00 Shepard-LM:Okay, the FDAI, GO. Ill and about -

107:54:18 Mitchell-LM:Trim?

107:54:19 Shepard-LM:FDAI looks good. We'll zero the CDUs.

107:54:22 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

107:54:27 Shepard-LM:Your zeroes in?

107:54:28 Mitchell-IM:Roger. Standing by.

107:54:37 Shepard-IM:Your zeros complete.

107:54:39 Mitchell-IM:Okay.

107:54:40 Shepard-LM:400 to plus 30,000.

107:54:41 Mitchell-LM:It's entered.

107:54:43 Shepard-LM:410 to plus all zeros.

107:54:50 Mitchell-LM:410 to plus all zeros is entered.

107:54:52 Shepard-IM:400 to plus 10,000.

107:54:54 Mitchell-LM:Plus 10,000 is entered.

107:54:58 Shepard-LM:...

107:54:59 Mitchell-LM:It went in. We have needles.

107:55:00 Shepard-LM:Get a read-out at 433, at your pleasure.

107:55:05 Mitchell-IM:Okay. 433 inertial velocity.

107:55:11 Shepard-IM:Okay, we're sitting on final trim, waiting 4 minutes

107:55:21 Shepard-LM:Got a VERB 21 NOUN 01, 10 10 and a 107 is your first ball.

107:55:27 Mitchell-LM:Okay. Have it there, and I've got it there. Good enough.

107:55:47 Shepard-LM:Okay, we're starting now with 96 upon A and *** on B. (Cough) Real good. ...

107:56:13 Mitchell-LM:Hey, A1, your RCS system looks set.

107:56:16 Shepard-LM:Ascent helium 1 and 2 look good. B tanks still good. And the star track is good.

107:56:26 Mitchell-LM:EPS system is good. ECS, all indications are normal

107:56:31 Shepard-LM:Okay.

107:56:33 Mitchell-LM:We're ready.

107:56:37 Shepard-LM:... A minute and 50 seconds away from final trim.

107:56:43 Mitchell-IM:Okay.

107:56:47 Shepard-IM:A minute there.

107:56:50 Mitchell-LM:All right.

107:57:06 Shepard-LM:Okay. We'll go into final trim 30 seconds early. It'll allow you to get that -

107:57:11 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

107:57:13 Shepard-IM:Then?

107:57:22 Shepard-IM:Let me do the final trim, and then you can take it over.

107:57:24 Mitchell-IM:Okay. Good.

107:57:28 Shepard-IM:Rather have me put it in?

107:57:29 Mitchell-LM:No, I've got it. I just wanted to adjust this lock - locking ... still reach.

107:57:37 Shepard-LM:Okay.

107:57:39 Mitchell-LM:Oh?

107:57:42 Shepard-LM:...

107:57:43 Mitchell-LM:Hold onto there. Do it? Says we're there, and we are.

107:57:50 Shepard-LM:Hold it. Hey, are you ready?

107:57:52 Mitchell-LM:I'm ready. ENTER.

107:57:55 Shepard-LM:A ENTER.

107:57:59 Mitchell-LM:It'll look this ... comes up.

107:58:10 Mitchell-LM:Okay, there it is.

107:58:11 Shepard-LM:NOUN 62s VERB 21, NOUN 01 ENTER, 10 10, ENTER; 107, ENTER.

107:58:26 Mitchell-IM:Okay, Houston. It's in.

107:58:34 CC:Roger, Antares.

107:58:37 Shepard-LM:And - Antares is standing by for a PDI GO.

107:58:51 CC:And, Antares; Houston. You're GO for Fra Mauro.

107:58:57 Shepard-LM:Good show, Fredo. Thank you.

107:59:00 Mitchell-LM:Thank you. You troops do a nice job down there - -

107:59:02 Shepard-LM:That was beautiful.

107:59:11 Mitchell-LM:Hey, if you watch us reset, we'll flip the page.

107:59:15 Shepard-LM:Let's go.

107:59:16 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

107:59:25 Shepard-LM:.. .

107:59:27 Mitchell-LM:Okay. All procedures are normal from here on in except the 26. I actuate the MANUAL THROTTLE to FULL on my side.

107:59:34 Shepard-LM:That's correct. I'll start reentering the DPS after you have throttled up.

107:59:39 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

107:59:42 Shepard-IM:Won't have guidance until after I give it to you, after ... Okay.

107:59:52 Shepard-LM:We covered everything on that last one?

107:59:55 Mitchell-LM:Yes, sir.

108:00:00 Mitchell-LM:At 10 feet per second, we ...

108:00:08 Shepard-LM:You're breaking up to me. Would you run your sensitivity up a little?

108:25:00 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Over.

108:25:05 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

108:25:07 CC:Roger, Stu. We've got you on a different channel now than the LM. For some reason, we're getting a little bit of noise out of your downlink. But did you relay everything that was going on - or hear everything that was going on?

108:25:22 Roosa:Yes, man. I sure did.

108:25:24 CC:Okay. Mighty fine.

108:25:25 Roosa:They really put her in there.

108:25:56 Roosa:Hey, Ron, let me know when I can talk without disrupting things. It quieted down, now?

108:26:00 CC:Yes. It's all quieted down, and your downlink's on another channel; so, no problems. So, you're clear to talk.

108:26:08 Roosa:Okay. On this - Say again.

108:26:11 CC:Roger. You're cleared to talk.

108:26:16 Roosa:Oh, okay. Hey, that LTC camera's still acting up the same way; I tried both nonessential BUS positions, and I cycled all the connectors - could see no visi - visible damage to the pins. I did look at that slit in the shutter, and the first two times I actuated it, it stayed pretty much over 1 inch from the edge. And then, the next couple of times, it stopped about 2 inches from the edge -one each time a different edge, but out about 2 inches, maybe just a little more. It still has the clacking sound; it still wants to - intermittently fire off a frame in standby, even with the frames per minute set on zero. And I did not take the LTC photo target 16; I figured that Gordon had LMPlied that it might be a waste of film to shoot them this way; I thought maybe we could get it fixed, we could save the film. I did shoot the landing because I figured, even if it is working - that one we wouldn't have another chance at. And I fired 39 frames off of magazine B on the landing per the pad. I don't know whether it will turn out or not, because it - it clanked and fluttered the whole time.

108:27:55 CC:Okay. We copy that, Stu.

108:28:01 Roosa:Okay.

108:28:06 CC:One thing I might ask you there. Did you try trying the power switch ON and OFF any time when it was clicking away there.

108:28:17 Roosa:Yes, I did. I cycled that. I cycled the nonessential BUS switch while it was running. Saw no change at all from MAIN A to MAIN B. And once you apply the power, it - it goes into its MAG and does its thing there, regardless of whether you have the MODE switch in AUTO, STANDBY, or SINGLE, and whether or not you turn the POWER ON and OFF again. Generally: now, when I came up to shoot the landing, when I turned the POWER switch ON a minute before the T start, it clanked all the time but didn't fire off any frames. And during the - minute plus a few seconds path there, it just kicked one, going off as it should every -one every 2 seconds. So the thing's kind of random; I can't seem to get a pattern on it.

108:29:21 CC:Okay. We understand that, Stu. And it still acts like - we got the thing to foul up by a low dc voltage on the thing down here on the ground. And, like you say, if it's got the voltage up on the thing, it seems to work.

108:29:41 Roosa:Hey, along that line, Gordon LMPlied that low dc voltage ought to have a flickering POWER ON light; and that's not true. Mine appears to be steady.

108:29:50 CC:Okay. I copied. And, Stu, I've got a bunch of P24 pads here for you. Better start copying them, I guess. And also - -

108:29:59 Roosa:Okay. Hey, let me fire off this 52, and then I'll be right with you.

108:30:02 CC:Okay.

108:32:15 Roosa:Okay. Ron, let's go to work on the pads.

108:32:18 CC:Okay. How about trying for the HIGH GAIN, MANUAL and MEDIUM, PITCH of minus of 73, YAW of 11.

108:32:51 CC:And Kitty Hawk; Houston. When you get it, start with RP-3 on page 13.

108:33:04 Roosa:Okay. I've got you now. Can you read me, Ron; the signal strength doesn't look too good.

108:33:08 CC:Okay. The yaw - try a yaw of 25 degree.

108:33:21 CC:Okay. You still with me, Stu?

108:33:27 Roosa:Yes, I've still got you here. Yaw 25's a little too much. Let me play with it just a second.

108:33:50 Roosa:Okay, Ron.- That looks like about the best I'm going to do. That good enough for you?

108:33:53 CC:Okay. I think it looks pretty good down here, now. And ready to start on RP-3. Still got about 9 minutes, yet. Okay, T , 109:57:54; T^, 110:02:44; 110:04:24; 110:05:12; north 5 and - -

108:34:37 Roosa:Okay. RP-3, 109:57:54. Go ahead, Ron. Let's run them all through, and then I'll read them back.

108:34:47 CC:Okay, good. RP-5: T1, 110:08:45, 110:13=35; 110 :15 :15 ; HO: 16 :03. It's on track. Okay. The Daguerre 66. T1, 110:30:11; 110 - -

108:35:37 Roosa:Hold it. Start Daguerre over again. You broke up.

108:35:41 CC:Roger. Okay, the Daguerre 66 T1 is 110:30:11; 110:35:01; 110:36:41; 110:37:29. It's north 22. Okay, ready for P20 - Landmark 14-1.

108:36:26 Roosa:Okay.

108:36:27 CC:T1 is 110:46:15; 110:51:05; 110:52:45; 110:53:33. It's north 6, and, of course, it'll be 14-1 for the NOUN 89.

108:37:02 Roosa:Okay, Ron. You broke up on TCA and T3.

108:37:08 CC:Okay. TCA on 14-1, 110:52:45; T3, 110:53:33. North 6; NOUN 89 is 14-1.

108:37:33 Roosa:Okay. 14-1, 110:46:15; 110:51:05; 110:52:45; 110:53:33; north 6, 14-1.

108:37:50 CC:Roger. Readback correct.

108:38:02 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Request P00 and ACCEPT there, and we'll give you a state vector.

108:38:12 Roosa:Okay. You have it.

108:38:32 CC:And, Kitty Hawk; Houston. Got a map update for the REV 15 on page 13.

108:38:40 Roosa:Go ahead.

108:38:41 CC:Roger. 180 degrees is 109:47:59.

108:38:50 Roosa:109:47:59.

108:38:54 CC:Roger.

108:40:59 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Computer's yours, now.

108:41:06 Roosa:Okay. Thank you, Ron.

108:42:11 CC:Okay. Kitty Hawk, Houston. About 45 seconds to LOS; we'll see you on the other side.

108:42:19 Roosa:Okay.

109:07:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 15

109:32:25 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. About time to start the camera on RP-5 ? e

109:38:11 Roosa:Houston, 14. How do you read?

109:38:15 CC:Roger. Loud and clear, Stu.

109:38:30 Roosa:Well, how are the troops in Antares maiing out? Do we have an estimate on the landing spot yet, Don?

109:38:39 CC:Okay. They're pressing on with all their checks down there. And everything is still real good. They've got a STAY.

109:38:46 Roosa:Real good.

109:38:53 Roosa:How far from the spot? Did they come right in on the first pick?

109:38:59 CC:Say again, Kitty Hawk.

109:39:05 Roosa:Roger. Are they right on the target?

109:39:09 CC:Yes, I think so. From what we can tell they just passed over the north crater of Triplet, and on down the stream just a little bit, but Just a little bit short of the target, I think, initially. They haven't started the - their descriptions yet, though. I haven't gotten the word yet on exactly where they are.

109:43:41 Roosa:Houston, 14 or Kitty Hawk.

109:43:45 CC.:Roger. Go ahead, Kitty Hawk.

109:43:51 Roosa:Hey, Ron, got any word on how the low altitude track on 14-1 and high altitude, compare?

109:44:05 CC:Let me see if I can get that, Stu.

109:44:11 Roosa:Okay.

109:47:59 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

109:48:04 Roosa:Go ahead, big ...

109:48:06 CC:Roger. You're kind of down in the mud, Stu. But your high altitude tracking was excellent, and we've changed the landing site from a previous estimate there, 1400 feet in latitude, and zero in longitude. We've only got three real-time marks on the low altitude, but it compares real favorably with the high altitude stuff, so far.

109:48:37 Roosa:Well, now the other marks, on the low altitude, Ron, on the - on the tape, that right?

109:48:42 CC:Yes. That affirm. They were on the tape, and it took us awhile to get that dumped on the tape, and then - so we're just now getting the tape data.

109:48:54 Roosa:Okay.

109:49:39 CC:And, Kitty Hawk; Houston. You've got about 30 seconds to T1 time for Daguerre 66.

109:49:48 Roosa:Okay. Thank you.

109:54:01 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. You can start your camera.

109:54:07 Roosa:Okay.

110:05:51 CC:Okay, Stu; Houston here. You're coming up on the T1 time.

110:06:00 Roosa:Okay.

110:10:04 CC:Okay. Time to start your camera there, Stu.

110:10:10 Roosa:Ron, she's running; thank you.

110:10:14 CC:Okay. And when you finish up there as you?re -whipping on across the landing site, those guys are so close to it, you probably can?t tell the difference from up there.

110:14:06 Roosa:Ron, I tried to change the camera and put the sextant on and take a look at - the site; Cone Crater went by just as I got the sextant up.

110:14:20 CC:Okay. Couldn't understand what you said that time, Stu. Just for your information though, Antares is locked onto you with her radar.

110:14:32 Roosa:Okay. What I said was, that soon as I finished up on 14-1, I tried to get the sextant in, in time to look at the LM; but, by the time I got it in, Cone Crater was just passing out of the field of view.

110:14:47 CC:Roger. I understand. We'll catch them one of these other REVs.

110:14:55 Roosa:Okay.

110:20:27 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

110:20:33 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston; Kitty Hawk.

110:20:35 CC:Roger. We'll stand by for the magazine percentage there after - on the landmark tracking magazine.

110:20:57 Roosa:Okay. I saw it 62 percent.

110:21:03 CC:Roger. Sixty-two percent?

110:21:11 Roosa:Yes. That's what it looks like.

110:21:13 CC:Okay. And once you get in attitude, we'll use this high gain procedures: MANUAL and MEDIUM BEAM width.

110:21:27 Roosa:All right.

110:22:18 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Request OMNI Alfa until we get into the attitude.

110:22:26 Roosa:How do you read, Houston? Kitty Hawk.

110:22:30 CC:Roger, Kitty Hawk; loud and clear.

110:22:37 Roosa:Okay.

110:28:47 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. I've got some map updates, and your zero phase pads for you.

110:28:57 Roosa:Okay. Go ahead.

110:28:59 CC:Okay. On page 16, there. Map update, REV 16; 180 is 111:46:20.

110:29:15 Roosa:Okay, 111:46:20.

110:29:19 CC:Okay, your zero phase pad to backward.

110:29:30 Roosa:Go ahead.

110:29:31 CC:Roger. Roll, 197-4; pitch, 001.4; yaw, all zips; T-start, 111:59:43. And make a note there that your switch time will be 8:07- Over.

110:30:19 Roosa:Okay, 0197.4, 001.4, 000; T-start, 111:59:43; switch time at 8:07.

110:30:33 CC:Roger. And on page 18 now, your zero phase pad forward.

110:30:43 Roosa:Okay.

110:30:45 CC:Okay. Roll, 344.7; pitch, 240.1; yaw, all zips; T-start, 112:36:00. And make a note there that your new switch time is 9:58.

110:31:24 Roosa:Okay. 344.7, 240.1, 000; 112:36:00; and switch time, 9:58.

110:31:36 CC:Roger. And just a reminder to be sure and get it on your tape up there. The verbal marks at your first and last intervalometer actuation.

110:31:52 Roosa:Okay. Thank you.

110:32:15 CC:... is 958.

110:32:26 Roosa:Okay, 344.7, 240.1, 000, 112:36:00. And switch time 958.

110:32:37 CC:Roger. Just a reminder to be sure and get it on your tape up there - the verbal at your first and last intervalometer actuation.

110:32:52 Roosa:Okay. Thank you.

110:39:10 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

110:39:19 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston; Kitty Hawk.

110:39:21 CC:Okay, we're about to LOS here, Stu. Get some good gegenschein photos when you go around the corner there. If you want to write these down and stick them on your site map there, it looks like they're located - located at Charlie Quebec, 0.5 and 65.4.

110:39:45 Roosa:Okay, got Charlie Quebec 0.5 and 65.4. And we'll get the gegenschein. This new window shade sure looks great, Ron. And fits on - back on the camera real good. Just to be doubly safe, I just got through taping floodlight - right up by the window.

110:40:06 CC:Hey, beautiful.

110:40:47 Roosa:And Houston, Kitty Hawk.

110:40:49 CC:Go.

110:40:52 Roosa:Hey, Ron. Is somebody thinking up any words about our Descartes photography. Does it look like the Hycon's wiped out, or we going to do the COAS or -any decision on that?

110:41:08 CC:We're working on it right now, Stu.

111:06:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 16

111:27:54 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. You ought to be switching to your second target.

111:28:15 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. You ought to be switching to your second target.

111:36:55 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

111:36:57 Roosa:Kitty Hawk. How do you read?

111:36:58 CC:Okay, I got you now. How was good old target 2, there?

111:37:07 Roosa:Well, I'm afraid you're right, Ron. It was pretty tough, I never saw B at all and A - I think - is pretty far down. I was pretty surprised at target 1, generally, the targets, A, B, and C are very easy to pick up; but in zero phase, B was Just completely wiped out. I think the clue is heading down the flat - if you have got some relief by you, even in zero phase, you know, you can sort of use that as - to help you on in. But in zero phase, B was pretty well bombed out. D was actually the best of the three and if you can pretty well hang on in, you can pick it up, if you use the other craters as a lead in and A was about - he was -... and during zero phase that whole ... really washed out.

111:38:21 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We are getting too much background noise here. I really couldn't understand anything you said there.

111:38:31 Roosa:Well, why didn't you stop me? Okay ? get it all on the tape - I'll put this other ... on the tape, also then. Well, I guess it'll have to be running. Are you going to leave the tape running during this next ...?

111:39:04 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Why don't you go ahead and leave the tape running here. We sure can't make out what you're saying down here.

111:40:39 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk. Houston here. We took the ... out; maybe we ought to get rid of some of the banging. How do you hear me now?

111:40:50 Roosa:Oh, you're loud and clear. What did you take out?

111:40:53 CC:Well, something that's supposed to cut out part of the static. It does cut down on the static, but everytime the signal strength gets a little bit low, it also bangs. So, I couldn't hear you. I took those out and now I can hear you loud and clear.

111:41:09 Roosa:Okay, you've always been loud and clear here. No problem at all.

111:41:13 CC:Roger.

111:41:30 Roosa:Okay, Ron; are you going to let the tape run for these - during this next sighting?

111:43:19 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk. Houston.

111:43:25 Roosa:Go ahead, Ron.

111:43:26 CC:Okay, Stu. The comm is a little bit marginal down here, but what we would like to do is leave the tape running until after this next zero phase, but also talk to the ground if you will and then maybe we will have some comments back for you. And then we should get it in one place or the other for sure.

111:43:47 Roosa:Okay, very good.

111:46:56 Roosa:And Houston, Kitty Hawk. You want me to terminate the charge on B and start one on Able?

111:47:05 CC:That's affirmative, Kitty Hawk.

111:47:11 Roosa:Okay.

111:55:29 CC:Okay, Stu. You've got about 30 seconds to start time.

111:55:36 Roosa:Okay, thank you.

112:00:25 CC:Okay, Stu. About 30 seconds to turn the camera on. Give me a hack when you turn it on.

112:00:36 Roosa:Okay, I'll do that.

112:00:57 Roosa:And stand by.

112:01:00 Roosa:MARK. Camera's running ...

112:05:55 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. You can start on STOP on that one, and switch to target area 4. We can't hear a thing you're saying down here, but keep talking - We'll get it on the tape.

112:12:39 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Will you try to pass down the frame number off of the zero phase stuff?

112:12:48 Roosa:Okay. Frame number is 58.

112:12:52 CC:Say it again.

112:12:58 Roosa:Frame number is 58.

112:13:02 CC:Roger. Understand 58.

112:15:43 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. I've got your map update for REV IT and the zodiacal light photo pad.

112:15:48 Roosa:Stand by just 1, Ron.

112:17:14 Roosa:Okay, Ron; go ahead.

112:17:21 CC:Okay, Stu. Again, I could just barely read you; but your map update for REV IT: 180, 113:44:40.

112:17:32 Roosa:Okay; 113:44:40.

112:17:35 CC:Roger, that's correct. Okay, zodiacal light photo pad T-start, 113:18:03.

112:17:51 Roosa:Okay, 113:18:03, zodiacal light T-start.

112:17:57 CC:Roger; that's correct.

112:18:03 Roosa:I guess our comm didn't hold out through that, did it, Ron? Seemed like I heard you - heard it drop out.

112:29:59 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

112:30:05 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston; Kitty Hawk.

112:30:07 CC:Okay, Stu. As you know, when you come around the other side here, we?re going to want to dump the DSE to get your zero-phase stuff. So, if you'll come over the hill in these attitudes - You ready to copy?

112:30:26 Roosa:Okay, stand by. Hey, I noticed the a - the tape was barber-poled. I don't know if it went during the second - or not - zero phase; did you stop the tape after the second zero-phase pass?

112:30:39 CC:That's affirm; we stopped it and rewound it.

112:30:46 Roosa:Okay, that's what I was afraid of. I was afraid it might have run down - okay, thank you. Give me some attitudes.

112:30:51 CC:Okay. Roll, 060; pitch of 304, yaw of 0. Your HIGH GAIN angles will be PITCH, plus 33; YAW of 279. And you can start the maneuver to that attitude after you complete your zodiacal light stuff.

112:31:24 Roosa:Okay, I'll start a maneuver after the zodiacal light of 060, 304, 000. Set up the HIGH GAIN on a PITCH of plus 33, YAW of 279-

112:31:37 CC:Roger; and, as you can know, that's just 60 degrees out and roll from the LM visual attitude.

112:31:48 Roosa:Okay.

112:32:16 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

112:32:17 Roosa:Go ahead.

112:32:18 CC:Okay, Stu; I gave you some bum dope there. We just stopped the tape at the end of the zero-phase stuff; we did not rewind it, so you can go ahead and use it on the back side.

112:32:32 Roosa:Okay.

112:32:45 CC:Your comm's good now; I don't know why it wasn't real good there during zero phase.

112:32:54 Roosa:Yes; well, I got you on the HIGH GAIN now.

112:32:57 CC:Oh, okay; that's why (laughter).

112:33:04 Roosa:Yes, it does help.

112:34:28 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Just for your information, EVA preparation seems to be progressing normally down there at the Fra Mauro area. And they'll probably be out on the surface when you come around the other side.

112:34:45 Roosa:Ah, very good. Did they say anything about the terrain, Ron? It seems like I heard them say they were - something like an 8-degree roll angle or something.

112:35:04 CC:Yes, that's right. And it's a little rougher than what they thought it was going to be down there. That was just a general comment on the terrain.

112:35:19 Roosa:They comment on how steep it looked - to get up the Cone?

112:35:38 CC:Hey, Stu; Cone's about 5 o?clock, and they really weren't looking at the slope as they came down across there (laughter).

112:35:51 Roosa:Oh, that's right. Yes, sorry about that.

112:35:55 CC:No sweat.

112:35:58 Roosa:I already had them outside.

112:37:32 CC:Okay, Stu; you got about 30 seconds to T-start time.

112:37:40 Roosa:Okay; thank you.

112:39:17 CC:Okay, Stu; we'll see you on the other side.

112:39:23 Roosa:Okay, Ron.

113:04:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 17

113:27:00 Roosa:Houston, how do you read Kitty Hawk?

113:27:03 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. We got you loud and clear.

113:27:09 Roosa:Okay.

113:27:15 CC:And, Stu, I guess we may as well start off with the P24 landmark tracking pad, there, on page 21. And, let me ask you a question here. If the - th hours are the same in all these T^, T^, TCAs, and T^, how about just reading the hour on the T^ and read minutes and seconds on the rest of them. Is that okay?

113:27:40 Roosa:That sounds like a great idea.

113:27:42 CC:Okay. Good.

113:29:34 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

113:29:35 Roosa:Houston, how do you read Kitty Hawk?

113:29:37 CC:Okay. Loud and clear there. Now, Stu, how about that P00 and ACCEPT here, and we'll ship you a state vector. And whenever you're ready to copy on the LM visual pad.

113:29:52 Roosa:Okay. You have P00 and ACCEPT, and I'm ready to copy.

113:29:54 CC:Okay. T , 114:43:27; 48:27, 49:57, 50:11; north 12 miles. Okay for your latitude - it'll be a minus 03.651; longitude over 2, minus 08.734. And you can make a little note down there for the site map. The coordinates - latest ones, are CQ 0.1 and 65.4, that's Charlie Quebec 0.1.

113:31:07 Roosa:Okay. Copy 114:43:27, 48:27, 49:57, 50:11; north 12; latitude, minus 03.651; longitude over 2, minus 08.734, and, I guess, we'll call the altitude 000.76.

113:31:34 CC:That's affirm. And, Kitty Hawk; Houston, the computer is yours. And, Stu, I'm going to - -

113:31:48 Roosa:Okay. The computer's mine and - Go ahead, Ron.

113:31:55 CC:Okay. If you want to take these down here, I'm going to give you some magazine - numbers here that I want to make sure we save. Since we're having a couple of problems here with our Hycon, we would like to save magazine Tango. That's the MBW film as a backup to magazine Papa. And the magazine Papa is the prime 500-millimeter magazine. And now, if you've already used something out of magazine Tango, we'd just like to know what percentages are still on the magazine, or what the frame numbers are?

113:32:49 Roosa:That doesn't sound familiar. I'll have to go back through here and check it. The only ones I've used are those that we've listed here. So far, I've been following them right down the line.

113:33:01 CC:Okay. Sounds like we're in pretty good shape. I think magazine Tango is the one that - was - you know, opportunity-type photos.

113:33:13 Roosa:Yes. I haven't taken any of those.

113:33:16 CC:Okay. Real good.. And just as a - a note, we're not sure - for sure yet, but we'll probably do a COAS pass on Descartes on REV 25. And then, when they get on around to the Hycon passes, we'll probably try to - to get that thing to work as we're going for REV 27 and whenever the other one is.

113:33:41 CC:And, Stu, to keep you up to date on what's happening down there on the surface, they had a little bit of comm problems with the PLSSs and the relays and all those good-deal things like that. And they're running a little bit behind, but it looks like they'll make it out, probably in about 20 or 30 minutes.

113:36:12 CC:And, Kitty Hawk; Houston. Do you remember - remember what the percentage of magazine left for the zodiacal light?

113:36:29 Roosa:Roger, Houston. I call that 72 percent.

113:36:35 CC:Mighty fine, Stu. 72 percent.

113:40:08 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

113:40:13 Roosa:Go, Houston.

113:40:15 CC:Okay, we've got a good tape dump, and you can proceed to the LM visual attitude at your convenience.

113:40:26 Roosa:Okay. Thank you.

113:51:39 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Big Al's on the surface.

113:54:32 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

113:54:40 CC:And Kitty Hawk, Houston. Kind of translating in the blind. Ed's out on the surface now with Al, And I think we got a good uplink, but downlink is pretty weak. So, don't answer if you can't read anything.

114:00:58 Roosa:Houston, Kitty Hawk.

114:01:24 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. You're very weak. Say again.

114:01:52 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. In the blind, about 30 seconds from T^ time.

114:02:03 Roosa:Houston, are you calling Kitty Hawk?

114:02:06 CC:Hey, by golly; I read you, Stu. Yes, you are coming up time.

114:03:45 Roosa:You are unreadable. Pick another comm track ...

114:19:38 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

114:19:43 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston; Kitty Hawk.

114:19:45 CC:Okay, Stu. I've got a bunch of P24 pads here, if you're ready to start copying. Starting on page 22 with RP-2.

114:19:54 Roosa:Okay, just a word about the - Okay, before you start those, I got a track on the - on the LM. I noticed as I came back up, the - the tape motion had gone barber pole, though; I hope it was running. I checked it just before I started marking. Or maybe you stopped it. I don't know. But I would put the LM on those coordinates at Charlie Quebec 0.0 and 65-1.

114:20:31 CC:And you saw the LM at Charlie Quebec 0.0 and 65.1. Is that correct?

114:20:45 Roosa:Yes, that's where I - I would put it on the map. It looks like that's where I was tracking it. It looked like it was just a little - you know, you'd - you'd plotted it down just off the edge of that old crater in Triplet, and I've got it over on the other side of it.

114:20:59 CC:Okay.

114:21:13 CC:I guess you got the word - they're out on the surface now - don't you?

114:21:19 Roosa:I heard Bruce talk something about the contingency sample, so I figured they made it.

114:21:29 CC:Okay. And, if you are ready to copy here, we'll press on with some of these P24 pads.

114:21:37 Roosa:Okay, I'm ready to go.

114:21:39 CC:Okay, in RP-2: T^ 115:49:34; 54:24, 56:04, 56:52; north 08.

114:22:16 Roosa:Okay, I got that.

114:22:18 CC:Okay; and the 12-1: T^ 115:59:16; T2 is l16:04:06, 05:46, 06:34; north 32. And let's go on over to the map update next.

114:22:58 Roosa:Okay.

114:23:00 CC:Okay. LOS and AOS are changes. I'll read them all. LOS, 115:18:05; 115:43:01; l16:04:23. Okay, let's switch to page 23 and Dollond - -

114:23:28 Roosa:... 115 - Okay. I'm ready for Dollond.

114:23:34 CC:Okay. T : 116:30:45; 35:35, 37:15, 38:03; north 15. And push to the next page for FM-1.

114:24:12 Roosa:Go ahead.

114:24:14 CC:T , l16:41:46; 46:36, 48:16, 49:04; north 23. Over.

114:24:42 Roosa:Okay. I'll go back to RP-2.

114:24:47 CC:Okay. Go.

114:24:58 CC:Okay. Your readback is correct, so far.

114:25:17 Roosa:Okay. Are you with me, Ron?

114:25:20 CC:I missed your readback on FM-1, Stu.

114:25:27 Roosa:Okay. FM-1: l16:41:46, 46:36, 48:16, 49:04; north 23.

114:25:40 CC:Okay. Your readback is correct. And I've got a preliminary TEI 34 pad for your update book.

114:27:04 Roosa:Okay, I'm ready to copy.

114:27:06 CC:Okay. This is preliminary. TEI-34, SPS/G&N; 34930; minus 0.71, minus 0.02; 149:15:34.58; plus 3018.2, plus 1649.1, minus 0283.4; 181, 108, 029; NA; plus 0019.0. Okay.

Your GDC aline, Sirius and Rigel, 130, 129, 018. Ullage, four jets, 12 seconds. Okay. Your notes, number 1, the longitude at Tig equals plus 178.69. Note 2, assumed plane change and lift-off REFSMMAT. Note 3, with TEI REFSMMAT, roll, 180; pitch, 0; yaw, 0. And ready for readback.

114:30:48 Roosa:Okay. Before I start, give me DELTA-V total again, please ...

114:30:55 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. I can't read you now. Maybe it'll get better here in the next 7 minutes before all of that. But too much background noise.

114:31:10 Roosa:Okay. Could you read me DELTA-V total, please?

114:31:15 CC:Okay. Stu, your DELTA-V total was 3451.0.

114:31:38 Roosa:Okay....

114:31:48 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Skip the readback now. I can?t read you.

114:36:08 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. In the blind here. You want to try OMNI Charlie? We've got about a minute and a half to LOS now.

114:37:34 CC:Stu, Houston. In the blind. About 30 seconds to LOS here. We'll pick you up on the other side.

114:37:43 Roosa:Okay.

114:37:45 CC:Beautiful answer that time, anyhow. I heard that.

114:37:52 Roosa:I guess when I don't have much to say, I'm coming in loud and clear, huh?

114:37:56 CC:Yes. That's right.

115:02:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 18

115:31:06 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

115:32:29 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

115:33:19 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Got a report. Your downlink is very weak, but it's not LMPortant now. I'll catch you once you get into high gain for your P52 attitude.

115:50:19 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. In the blind here. Looks like about - coming upon T^ time for Dollond E.

115:54:33 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. In the blind, again. Time to start the camera.

115:54:42 Roosa:Okay. Can you read, Ron?

115:54:48 CC:We just barely got you that time, Stu.

115:57:46 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. I guess remote site said that you were asking if we're picking you up, and -Negative, we're not picking you up here.

116:01:15 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston in the blind. Coming up on T^ time.

116:05:33 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston in the blind. You can start the camera.

116:10:47 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston in the blind here still. Looks like you're on your way to the attitude. You might figure out your - switch over to page 26 for P30 maneuver there in the flight changes.

116:13:04 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston; you're in the blind, again. You might try OMNI Charlie.

116:16:39 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston; how you read?

116:16:44 Roosa:Well, great. Looks like we made it.

116:16:48 CC:Hey, mighty fine. How about whipping into P00 and ACCEPT, there; and we'll ship you up a state vectors and the target load. And if you're ready to copy, there on - We got your plane change maneuver from page 26.

116:17:09 Roosa:All right, I'll be right with you.

116:17:11 CC:Okay.

116:21:20 Roosa:. DELTA-Vy, plus 0370.7.

116:21:25 CC:Okay, that was correct. Okay, whip back to page 25, on your north ecliptic pole attitudes.

116:21:44 Roosa:Okay, I got it.

116:21:45 CC:Okay, it'll be at roll 270, 009, and 355- And your 180 position for your map update 117:41:22.

116:22:09 Roosa:Okay, that's the north ecliptic pole attitudes at ? 117:11; 270, 009, 355; 180, 117:41:22.

116:22:24 CC:Roger. Okay, Stu, it's your computer; and, now, you can whip in to P52.

116:22:42 Roosa:Okay.

116:26:11 CC:We saw that.

116:26:17 Roosa:Sorry about that.

116:26:18 CC:(Laughter) Okay.

116:27:41 Roosa:Well, there's just no justice tonight.

116:27:47 CC:(Laughter) Okay.

116:33:07 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

116:33:29 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

116:34:03 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Kind of in the blind here. Just a reminder to terminate your battery charge prior to the plane change burn.

116:35:01 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. About 1 minute until LOS. We?ll see you coining around the other side, and A1 and Ed are about 3 hours into their EVA, whipping away on their ALSEP deployment.

116:35:18 Roosa:I didn't get all of that, Ron. But I did get they?re in the ALSEP deployment. Is that affirm?

116:35:24 CC:That?s affirm, about 30 seconds. And did you get: terminate your battery charge prior to burn?

116:35:34 Roosa:No, I didn't get that yet. Do you want to let it run on through until I come out AOS, or do you want that terminated?

116:35:44 CC:No, do it sometime prior to the burn.

116:35:50 Roosa:Okay.

117:01:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 19

117:23:07 Roosa:Houston, you read 4 - Kitty Hawk?

117:23:10 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. We're reading you loud and clear.

117:23:17 Roosa:Okay, I'm coming up on my pitch 4-minute mark. Everything's completed on the checklist up to that.

117:23:26 CC:Okay, mighty fine, Stu. As soon as we get a little HIGH BIT RATE here, we?ll take a good look at your data.

117:23:53 Roosa:And, Ron, do you want me to do anything with the tape recorder; you going to handle that?

117:25:04 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We'll handle the tape recorder.

117:25:11 Roosa:Okay.

117:25:32 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. You're looking mighty fine down here. You have a. GO for plane change.

117:26:20 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. You have a GO for the burn.

117:29:07 Roosa:Okay, 30 seconds. Everything looks good, Ron.

117:29:11 CC:Okay. Looking good down here.

117:29:24 Roosa:Okay. Ullage is on.

117:29:36 Roosa:And we've got -

117:29:37 Roosa:IGNITION. And she's steady as a rock.

117:29:46 CC:Beautiful.

117:29:54 Roosa:And SHUTDOWN.

117:30:52 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. No trim on this burn. Arid you can whip into P00, and we'll start sending seme uplink to you.

117:31:03 Roosa:Okay. Just a second ... Do you need anything else The Delta is minus 12.3, and I guess your monitors are wrong. I hate to break up the discussion here, but I want to be right with you.

117:31:21 CC:Roger. Delta-V^, was minus 12.3.

117:31:57 Roosa:Okay. You wanted P00 and ACCEPT. Is that right, Ron?

117:32:09 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. Do you have P00 and ACCEPT?

117:32:18 Roosa:You've got P00 and ACCEPT now.

117:32:21 CC:Roger.

117:32:28 CC:And, when you get things pretty well squared away there, I've got some 00 time and a photo pad and then a map update for you.

117:32:46 Roosa:Okay. I'm ready to copy.

117:32:48 CC:Okay. Your REFSMMAT 00 time, 142:25:30.00. Okay, your earthshine photo pad is on page 28; T-start is 118:45:37.

117:33:37 Roosa:Okay, Ron. I copy REFSMMAT 00 time, 142:25:30.00; earthshine photo pad T-start, 118:45:37-

117:33:50 CC:Okay. And then the next page - on page 29, your map update. For 180 - for 180, it's 119:39:59-And while we've got a little time here, do you happen to have the percent magazine for the P24 pass and also from the galactic survey?

117:34:29 Roosa:Okay. ... right after ...

117:34:41 CC:Stu, wait a minute. I can't read you there. You might check - try tweaking on the OMNI - or tweaking up the HIGH GAIN, please.

117:34:58 Roosa:How do you read, now?

117:35:01 CC:Still got a lot of - Hey, there It's quieted down-It should be good now.

117:35:10 Roosa:Okay. Let's start with map update.

117:35:14 CC:Okay, go ahead.

117:35:19 Roosa:I didn't get it.

117:35:21 CC:Oh, okay. Map update, REV 20 - -

117:35:22 Roosa:Went out on me.

117:35:25 CC:- - is l8 - for the 180, 119:39:59.

117:35:37 Roosa:Okay; 119:39:59-

117:35:40 CC:And the computer's yours.

117:35:53 CC:And, Stu, if you got it there, we need the percent of the magazine remaining from your P24 passes and also from the galactic survey.

117:36:38 Roosa:Okay, Ron. . I think I've got you again.

117:36:40 CC:Okay, good. Go. Okay. Did you hear the request for the - -

117:36:47 Roosa:I got the map update.

117:36:51 CC:Okay. And we need the percent remaining on your magazine from P24 and your galactic survey. Over.

117:37:04 Roosa:Okay.

117:37:11 Roosa:Okay; on the galactic survey is 73 percent.

117:37:18 CC:Copy; 73 percent.

117:37:22 Roosa:And on the landmark tracking, that's magazine B, it's 50 percent.

117:37:29 CC:MAG Bravo, 50 percent.

117:37:44 CC:Okay, Stu. You can go ahead and press on, and whip into your P52 attitude there.

117:37:49 Roosa:Okay.

117:37:55 CC:And, whenever you get some time there, maybe while you're torquing P52 or something, you can read back your TEI-34 preliminary pad.

117:38:11 Roosa:Okay,

118:00:40 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. We're back with you again.

118:00:49 Roosa:Roger.

118:05:01 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. You got about 30 seconds here before T-start time on the earthshine.

118:05:09 Roosa:Okay.

118:06:02 CC:Okay, Stu; Houston here. Looks like this might be a good time to read back your TEI-34 pad to us.

118:06:13 Roosa:Just a minute, Ron. I got to configure one more camera, here.

118:06:18 CC:Oh, okay, I -

118:07:10 CC:And, Stu, just as a matter of interest, Ed now has been out 4 hours and 28 minutes. They're back at the LM now cleaning up the stuff, and they're about ready to crawl back in.

118:11:47 CC:And, Kitty Hawk; Houston. Comm down here is getting lousy again.

118:13:03 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston in the blind. It's time to change your shutter speed. Your data camera to 1/I5th; your DAC, l/50th.

119:23:33 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Over.

119:23:39 Roosa:Oh, howdy, Houston; Kitty Hawk.

119:23:42 CC:Howdy, Stu, You're loud and clear. Sounds better than it has in a while. Maroon Team's now on duty, and I got a number of words for you when you get a chance to listen to me.

119:25:40 Roosa:How do you read, Gordon?

119:25:41 CC:Stu, I'm reading you about 3 by 3, now. How do read me?

119:25:49 Roosa:Okay. You're 5 square. Looks like the comm keeps coming and going.

119:25:56 CC:Roger. You're loud and clear, now. And starting through my list of things to tell you here, we've a - first of all, the LM guys are back in the LM. They got about a 4-hour 48-minute EVA and completed all the ALSEP deploy. And - pretty good shape and got quite a batch of rocks back in with them.

119:26:26 Roosa:Hey, that sounds great. How was the TV from the surface?

119:26:30 CC:It was beautiful. We had live TV through just about everything they did, including all the ALSEP deploy, and - and it couldn't have been much better.

119:26:47 Roosa:Hey, that sounds real good.

119:26:50 CC:Okay. Stuff for you. We're going to ask you to use 5-degree dead band during the sleep period to help us stay on the HIGH GAIN better, and hope we can get it a little higher percentage of HIGH BIT RATE while you're sleeping. If this results in too much RCS activity and keeps you awake, then we'll consider - well, we'll most likely then go back to the 10 degree if that's . considerably quieter. Over.

119:27:26 Roosa:Okay.

119:27:29 CC:Okay. Still hanging our - your readback of the TEI-34 preliminary pad. Also, would like the magazine percentage and frame numbers at the end of earthside. That should be listed under Solo Book at 119:09. And the P52 data, and I'll take any of that in any order that you come to it. Over.

119:27:58 Roosa:Okay. Let's start with the TEI-34 - -

119:28:04 CC:Okay - -

119:28:05 Roosa:334930; minus 0.711 minus 0.02; 149:15:34.58; plus 3018.2, plus 1649,1, minus 0283.4; 181, 108, 029; and NA; DELTA-V total, 3451.0; 2:25; 3426.9; 11, 125.3, 22.7; boresight star NA; NOUN 61, minus 27.03, minus 171.50; l160.8, 36251; 216:23:32; Sirius and Rigel, 130, 129, 0l8; four jet, 12 seconds; longitude and T. , IS plus 178:69 assumes plane change burn and lift-off REFSMMAT; with TEI REFSMMAT attitude 180:00.

119:29:32 CC:Okay, Stu. Readback's good, except for one omission on NOUN 44. Your height to perigee is a plus 0019.0. Over.

119:29:48 Roosa:Oh, very good. Hp, plus 0019.0.

119:29:52 CC:Okay. Readback's good.

119:29:53 Roosa:And on the magazines - the mag - okay, magazine S ended up with frame number 57; magazine K, 55 percent; the P52: NOUN 93, 00.027, 00.065, that's a minus and a minus; plus 00.018. They were torqued at 119:27:15.

119:30:34 CC:Okay, Stu. Copy 55 percent on Kilo; and frame 57 on Foxtrot; and a minus 00.027, a minus 00.065, a plus 00.018, at 119:27:15.

119:30:59 Roosa:Okay. That Hasselblad magazine is Sierra, S. Frame number 57-

119:31:06 CC:Okay, Sierra.

119:31:12 Roosa:Okay.

119:31:55 Roosa:Okay, Gordon. I just set you up a 5-degree dead band in this attitude; looks like it's a pretty good one for the HIGH GAIN.

119:33:08 CC:Roger, Stu.

119:37:55 Roosa:And, Houston; Kitty Hawk.

119:37:58 CC:Go ahead, Kitty Hawk.

119:38:03 Roosa:Okay. Have you got good enough lockup for an E-memory dump?

119:38:09 CC:Stand by to check.

119:38:18 Roosa:Say again, Gordon.

119:38:24 CC:Stu, you are GO for the E-MOD dump. Let us have it.

119:38:31 Roosa:Okay, coming at you.

119:38:54 Roosa:And, Gordon. And as far as crew status, I'm in good health, no medication; and I have some onboard read-outs.

119:39:01 CC:Roger, Stu. Stand by on the read-out; I'm working with the LM here on the other channel.

119:39:11 Roosa:Okay.

119:39:22 CC:Okay, Stu; ready to copy the onboard read-outs. I was tied up with Ed, there.

119:39:32 Roosa:Okay. BATTERY C is 37-0; PYR0 BATTERY A, 37-2; PYR0 BATTERY B, 37.2; RCS: A, 80; B, 71; C, 74; D, 73.

119:39:53 CC:Okay, Stu. Copied all that.

119:44:06 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

119:44:11 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

119:44:13 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk. Got some S-band things for you. Got a - I'd like to have you put the S-BAND NORMAL VOICE switch to OFF, set the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA to WIDE and MANUAL, and use your present angles.

119:44:37 CC:And Kitty Hawk - -

119:44:40 Roosa:Okay. You want WIDE - Go ahead.

119:44:44 CC:Okay. On the S-BAND NORMAL VOICE to OFF, that's when you're getting ready to go to sleep. But they do want the HIGH GAIN to WIDE and MANUAL, and you already have the good angles.

119:45:00 Roosa:Okay. Going WIDE.

119:48:58 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

119:49:03 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

119:49:06 CC:Okay. Got a couple of short messages for you before we close up shop. The - in a position to stop and talk a minute?

119:49:19 Roosa:Roger.

119:49:21 CC:Okay. First of all, let's say that REVs 25 and 26 are going to be nominal, no matter - as far as you're concerned - no matter what other activities people decide to juggle around. And, in case you didn't get the word, the President called Control Center, here awhile back, and offered us his congratulations to all of you, and the team down here for doing a good job; and as soon as we get a transcript of that, why, we'll read it up to you. The third thing is that Hycon camera. We've been talking to the Hycon people; and they're of the opinion that many of the things we've been chasing, some of the shutter oscillations and so forth, would not occur if the - or could not occur - if the counter is, in fact, counting off with each film advance; and it's our LMPression that, normally, you've been seeing the film counter advance. So, we've got a couple of steps we'd like to have you try in order to verify camera operation. The betting is that we have a good chance that the camera is functioning normally as far as taking pictures, and the noise may or may not be extraneous. The first question is status of MAG W. And if it still has some film on it, we'd like you to use it as the one to perform the check I'm going to describe to you.

119:51:05 Roosa:Yes, it's still got film. I don't know how much, but we haven't hit the end of it yet.

119:51:12 CC:Okay. It won't take much. Briefly, what we're going to do is to check visually and have you look to see if the shutter's operating. And we'll do this by looking down the lens barrel, looking from the - the operating end back towards the shutter. And what you're going to be seeing is -you won't see the shutter slit go across, but you will see the motion; and you should be able to detect the direction of motion, and the time of it. And you may want to use your flashlight to look down into the lens barrel and see what a - what you're doing. I'll read you some details - a detailed procedure; I just want to give you an outline first of what we're doing.

119:52:00 Roosa:Okay. What did they have to say about that check that we made where you look inside to make sure that the slit is an inch from the side.

119:52:12 CC:Okay -

119:52:14 Roosa:You know ... and -

119:52:15 CC:I'll - I'll check on that one; I'm not sure.

119:52:34 CC:Okay, Stu. I understand that they're satisfied with what you saw, and they think that - that looks normal, which is one of the things that makes us think that the camera is probably operating normally. And if it turns out that the shutter is oscillating, what you're going to see is just a blur; but, again, you'll see a - the - the blur will appear to oscillate; and I think you'll be able to detect that the shutter is going from side to side; and it just looks like a big flash. And I - if you'll put the - put a flashlight in the lens with you as you look in there, I think you'll be able to see it; and you may even see one of the seams on the Mylar, when it comes to a stop. So, with that description of what it is you're going to be looking at, I'll read you the detailed procedures, if. you're ready.

119:53:34 Roosa:Okay. Go ahead.

119:53:38 CC:Okay. We'll use the magazine W, because we're not going to use much film. We'd like to finish that one off. Go ahead and put the camera on the couch, or wherever it's convenient for you, with the lens opening visible to you. And you might want to tie the camera down, because we're going to operate it. Go ahead and hook up the camera according to the instruction decal; do everything in the normal orders. Like to have you make the following settings: for the MODE, we'd like to use AUTO; the shutter should be on l/50th of a second; the RANGE, 99-9; and the FRAME RATE at 60. Once you have the control box set up, turn the power to ON; and we'd like to have you observe the shutter operation by looking through the lens and use the penlight. And go ahead and run this thing, say 10 cycles. Like to have you also verify that the magazine sP00ls are rotating and that the counter is counting for each actuation that you observe.

119:54:50 Roosa:Yes, I can already verify that. The counter counts, and the sP00ls rotate.

119:54:55 CC:Okay. Has there been any instance when the counter didn't count when it was making its funny noises and so forth?

119:55:08 Roosa:No. Not - I don't - don't believe so at all.

119:55:12 CC:Okay, that's encouraging. I think the voting down here is that you probably have a functioning camera. What we'd like for you to do is - do this little test at your convenience, and let us know what you see. If it works out that this is one of these times where the test is performed, and the camera sounds like it's operating okay, go ahead and run the test; but don't sit there and run the camera trying to make it duplicate the sounds you've heard before. And what we're going to do is assume that if you see a shutter move, and it sounds right - we're going to assume that it's okay. Now - then, later in the flight, if this thing starts to act up again, we'd like to have you go ahead and finish that pass using the film; assume again that it's working properly; but, at the first convenient time afterwards, perform this test again. And the time, of course, that we're most interested in is performing this test when the noises and so forth are coming out.

119:56:23 Roosa:Okay. I don't think we?ll have to sweat finding that. Seem like it's all the time. Now, I still don't see what I'm looking for when I look down the - the lens. I know the shutter moves because I can actuate it and go in and look at the slit, and it's moved.

119:56:47 CC:Okay. What we're trying to see, Stu, is that the slit is not oscillating. We've been able to duplicate your noises down here by setting up an oscillation in the slit, whereas the shutter just sits there and runs back and forth. And it's cycling. Just completely out of control. So, we want to verify that that's not our problem. In that case, if you look at the slit before and after an actuation, you would find that the slit had moved, but it wouldn't tell you that it was moving properly. And I think that's the big thing you're looking for.

119:57:28 Roosa:Okay. I'll do that sometime, first chance I get tomorrow.

119:58:14 Roosa:And, Ken, another question.

119:58:18 CC:Yes, sir.

119:58:22 Roosa:Okay. What do they say about the - the shutter moving, FMC operating, and all that good-deal stuff with the switch in STANDBY?

119:58:35 CC:Okay. We've run several tests where we've been able to duplicate that, but it's - it's not easy to correlate the way we've duplicated that with : what you've been saying. We've been able to lower the power into the camera and make it do that. And it'll sit there; and, when the timing logic gets out of sequence, then there's - there's a little -all the timing internal to the camera is run from a commutator. And this little commutator can get hung up on one sequence like the shutter operation, and it?ll sit there and do that. The reason the EMC seems to operate normally is that that's all an AC operation, and the problems that we have been able to duplicate have all been associated with DC.

119:59:31 Roosa:Okay. I tried that - you know, I had it in 0TANI -BY, and I put the frame rate on zero - now I don't know whether there's a minimum, whether zero really means zero or not - but that didn?t seem to phase it. It went ahead and did its thing anyway.

119:59:47 CC:That's - that's been our experience too, Stu. Whenever we oet this condition up due to a low-power input on the DC, why, once it gets into this uncontrolled shutter oscillation, why, all other controls are - seem to be ineffective.

120:00:10 CLIP:Okay. And the noise is - is not synonymous with sporadic firings of the camera. You know, you can set sometimes in STANDBY POWER, ON, and all you have is the noise and no operation of the camera. Then, other times, you have the operation of the camera along with the noise.

120:00:34 CC:Okay. I'm afraid we don't have a real good handle on that. And - we've been able to duplicate many of your symptoms, but we haven't been able to duplicate them all simultaneously. So, we're going to hang our hats on this check that you're making just to - to verify that - our assumption that the camera's probably taking photographs and operated normally. If it turns out that the shutter speeds have been off or something of that nature, once we know that - and we can determine that on the ground - we can process the film accordingly and -and recover all of the data. And just as a backup procedure, we've had a lot of people working around the theory here that - to see what we can do - how we'd use our film if we finally have a limited amount or how we want to apportion our other film resources to take the place in case this camera check doesn't pass.

120:01:40 Roosa:Okay. So, if the shutter's not oscillating, we can press a:iead. That's the plan, huh?

120:01:46 CC:Yes, sir. And just in case it doesn't act up the one time you look at it, which seems to be one of nature's rules, why go ahead and assume it's working fine; and, next time it does act up, why, we'll run the test whenever it's convenient.

120:02:07 Roosa:All right.

120:02:09 CC:You having a good time up there?

120:02:14 Roosa:Yes, man.

120:02:19 CC:Sure sounds like it. You guys have really done a good job.

120:02:22 Roosa:Okay. We'll, I think I'm going to see - Yes, I think I'm going to see if I can have a little chow and sack out here. It's been a long day. Hey, would It help anybody if I'd run that check now, or should I - Is it all right if I wait until . in the morning?

120:02:49 CC:Well, I think - just run it the next time it's convenient for you.

120:03:00 Roosa:Okay. Unless - unless you think it would be a breakthrough somebody could work on tonight, I'd just as soon wait until tomorrow.

120:03:06 CC:That sounds good. Just give us a call whenever you get it done.

120:03:13 Roosa:Okay. And I think, as I told Gordon there, you know, I did take the pictures of the - of the ?landing, just assuming that maybe the thing was working right. I did - I did not take that target 16, however, because I thought maybe we could get it again if the thing gets to working right.

120:03:32 CC:Okay. Sounds good.

120:04:42 Roosa:Hey, Ken? One other question.

120:04:48 CC:Okay. Go ahead.

120:04:52 Roosa:Okay. Originally, criteria been that that shutter slit would stop an inch from the side. That - that's not really an iron-clad operating mode, then. Is that correct?

120:05:14 CC:Well, I'm not - real sure what you mean by an iron-clad, operating mode, Stu. It - it indicates that the - the shutter is, in fact, still being properly sync'ed. Tells you that the timing sync hasn't been lost, but it doesn't tell you that the shutter is firing at the proper time. It just means that it's - the shutter curtain itself is still hooked up.

120:05:43 Roosa:Okay. Put I'm sure you got the word that it - you. know, you can trip this beauty and sometimes it stops an inch from the side like it should; and then, the four or five times that I looked at that little operation, twice it stopped down maybe twice that far, maybe 2 inches or a little more out. It didn't - it didn't always stop the same distance out.

120:06:12 CC:Okay, Stu. Gordy says that's enough. That's an indication that we do have a sync problem.

120:06:30 CC:I guess one thing I'd like some verification on, Stu, is the randomness of this oscillation that you're getting. Does it happen the same in STANDBY and AUTO?

120:06:47 CMI:You mean the noise?

120:06:49 CC:Yes, sir.

120:06:54 Roosa:Yes. it's - it doesn't change when you go from STANDBY to AUTO. It doesn't change when you move the NONESSENTIAL BUS switch from MAIN A to MAIN B. It doesn?t change when you poke around on the connector on 227. It just seems like it's there, and - in all the modes. It - it - like it [sic] say, it started intermittently on that low pass. Came on, then went back off again. But now, every time that I've turned the power on, I've gotten the noise. I don't always get the shutter operation - 1 meant the - well, the shutter operation as far as the counter moving and the FMC operating But the noise is always there.

120:07:58 CC:Okay. And can you associate that more with AUTO than STANDBY? Anything like that?

120:08:11 Roosa:That's a negative.

120:08:13 CC:Okay.

120:08:14 Roosa:You turn the power on in STANDBY, and it's there.

120:08:16 CC:All right.

120:08:17 Roosa:And you go to AUTO - You go to AUTO and you start taking the pictures, but the noise is still there.

120:08:28 CC:Okay. Understand, Thank you.

120:10:03 Roosa:Okay, Ken. I'm going to turn off my handy-dandy switch here, and we'll see you all in the morning.

120:10:09 CC:All right, sir. All your systems look GO.

120:10:15 Roosa:Jolly good.

120:11:30 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. This is in the blind. No need to answer. Should you remember it, I want -being sure that your biomed's plugged in.

120:57:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 21

129:13:26 CC:Hello, Kitty Hawk. Good morning, Kitty Hawk. This is Houston. Over.

129:13:39 Roosa:Hello, Houston; Kitty Hawk.

129:14:01 CC:Hello, Stu. Good morning. You're loud and clear.

129:14:09 Roosa:iUfjer. Same litre; must have been a good, comm attitude.

129:14:14 CC:Roger. I guess we?re coming up in about roughly i-5 minutes starting this bistatic radar; and I have some pads to get up plus a little discuss'on; so, if you'll grab the Solo Book, I'll give you a couple of them right now.

129:14:19 Roosa:Okay. I've got it.

129:14:25 CC:Okay. Got a inu p update, REV 26, for page 33.

129:14:35 Roosa:Go ahead.

129:14:40 CC:LCS is 131:05:17; l80 at 131:30:08; AOS, 131:51:34 Co ahead.

129:15:15 Roosa:Okay. 131:05:17, 131:30:08, 131:51:34.

129:15:24 CC:Okay. You got that one okay. Same page, the vertical stereo photo pad: T-start, 131:44:21; T-stop, 132:32:42. Over.

129:15:49 Roosa:Roger. 131:44:21, 132:33:42.

129:15:52 CC:You gut that one okay. And the page before, your consumables update. Pur a GET of 129:55; RCS total, 64 percent; quad A, 67; Baker, 61; Charlie, 66; Delta, 63. tank 1, 56; tank 2, 56; 0^ tank 1, 79; tank 2, 78; tank 3, 26 percent. Over.

129:16:43 Roosa:Okay. 129:55; RCS total, 64; quads, 64, 67, 61, 63; H₂, 56, 56; 02, 79, 78, 26.

129:17:03 CC:Roger. That's correct, Stu.

129:17:25 CC:Stu, this is Houston. Would you give us P00 and ACCEPT, and we'll give you a state vector.

129:17:32 Roosa:Okay. You have it.

129:18:20 CC:Stu, this is Houston. Do you have time for a little conversation?

129:18:23 Roosa:Y OS , go ;.! iifl lJ. ,

129:18:30 CC:Okay. As far as the plan ahead for today, REV 25 and 26, there are no changes in the Solo Book. We need to know if you, by any chance, got up early and did anything more to the Hycon in the way of the procedures that Mattingly gave to you last night. If you didn't, anyway, w-^ need to find out the answer on the Hycon by the next REV or so, so we can choose the plan that we're going to take depending on the status to get Descartes photos. Over.

129:19:13 Roosa:Well, I planned on doing that, but I didn't make it, Gordon. I'll try to get to it just as soon as I can.

129:19:20 CC:Okay. I guess he probably went into great detail. The main thing is to determine if the shutter looks like it's working right. And if the shutter is working right and it's advancing film, even though it's making noise, they'll tell us it's worth at least trying to use it. If the shutter is not working, we'll N0-G0 it and just go all the way with the Hasselblad 500 millimeter.

129:19:55 Roosa:Okay. I'll try to get on it.

129:19:58 CC:And at any rate, we're going to take at least one pass with the 500 millimeter to be sure. Also, we're looking like we may give you a stowage change to LMProve L/D. That will be coming later if we decide that it's necessary. And there is a change to what we gave you for normal docking procedures. If you can turn to the docking part of the Solo Book, I might as well give you that right now.

129:20:44 Roosa:Okay. We've got a little while before we get to that one, Gordon. If it's all right with you, why don't we hold off; and I'll get to cracking here.

129:20:52 CC:Okay. Fine.

129:21:32 CC:Stu, Houston. We're going to send up another uplink. What it is is an uplink to - something in the computer called FANG, which is your short burn/thrust constant. It should take out the slight error that you saw on the first burn.

129:21:53 Roosa:Iley, that's a good show. Appreciate those updates.

129:22:20 CC:Slu, this is Houston. Can you give us a quick handle on how well you slept last night.

129:22:32 Roosa:Oh, I slept about normal. I guess I probably got about 6 hours sleep, maybe 5 and a half, 6.

129:22:41 CC:Roger.

129:22:46 Roosa:And I had lie medication, and I guess there's no sense in f\i .nine out my dosimeter or even getting if. out of r.K pocket. I've got the broken one.

129:22:55 CC:Roger.

129:23:11 Roosa:And, Gordon, just so you'll know, I?ll work on that Hycon over here during the eat period from 130:40, starting in that time frame; and I won't get a chance to give an answer to you, I guess, unLil we come back around on the other pass; but I'll, regardless of how it turns out, you want me to press ahead with the normal procedures here at 131 on that pad 30 on the 131:40, huh?

129:23:53 CC:That's affirmative, Stu. And an answer by that time will be plenty good enough. The next two REVs should be all nominal configures. And we're through with the computer, also.

129:24:10 Roosa:Okay.

129:26:33 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

129:26:38 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

129:26:39 CC:Okay, we're all configured for the bistatic radar test down here; if you'll go ahead and do the procedure as shown on 130-10 in the book, VHF ANTENNA LEFT, in OMNI Charlie; and we'll talk to you next time around, I guess.

129:27:08 Roosa:Okay. I understand that we're all configured, and you've got all your commands in. And you want me to go to VHF LEFT and S-3AND - I meant to OMNI Charlie, now.

129:27:27 CC:That's affirmative, Stu.

129:27:32 Roosa:Okay. I verify VHF ANTENNA LEFT, and I'm going to OMNI Charlie. And guess I'll talk to you later.

129:27:42 CC:Adios.

130:49:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 26

131:12:02 Roosa:Houston, do you read Kitty Hawk?

131:12:06 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. You're way down in the mud there. Try it again.

131:12:12 Roosa:Okay, how do you read?

131:12:14 CC:Okay, you're still real weak, Stu.

131:12:22 Roosa:Stand by a second.

131:12:33 CC:Try it agdin now, Kitty Hawk.

131:12:39 Roosa:Okay, Houston; Kitty Hawk. How do you read?

131:12:42 CC:Hey, there, I got you loud and clear.

131:12:49 Roosa:Okay, you ready for some words on the Hycon?

131:12:51 CC:We're standing by.

131:12:56 Roosa:Okay. I did that little routine that Ken talked to me about last night; and, sure enough, that noise we hear is the shutter oscillating; and you put the power on MODE switch, STAND BY, and the shutter sits there and oscillates back and forth. If you hit - if you go to AUTO and when the intervalometer times, the shutter appears to stop while - during the FMC. When the FMC kicks up, the shutter appears to stop at that point, then goes back to oscillating again. It does the same thing in single-frame mode.

131:13:43 CC:Okay, Stu. I think when you go to AUTO in the intervalometer time the shutter appears to stop. Does it a - kind of follow the intervalometer setting at all?

131:14:02 Roosa:Yes. And the - and the - the FMC operates and the shutter appears to stop, and you know then ... Hello, how do you read?

131:14:24 CC:Okay. I think I've got you again now -

131:14:27 Roosa:Hello, Houston. How do you read?

131:14:30 CC:Okay, I've got you again now, Stu. How am I?

131:14:33 Roosa:Okay. Okay, you're loud and clear. And it does the same thing in the mode - in the single; whenever you hit the button, why the FMC operates and the shutter appears to stop, and then starts back oscillating.

131:15:01 CC:Okay, Stu, When the shutter does oscillate on the thing, does it kind of go back and forth or does it seem like it keeps going around? In the same -you know, does it seem like it keeps going around in the same direction or does it oscillate back and forth?

131:15:27 Roosa:Well, I guess I might have to look at it again to be ver - be real certain but I - yes, it goes back and forth. I might check that in a little bit if I get the chance - or when I get the chance, but it looked like it was just sitting there going back and forth on the thing.

131:15:54 CC:Okay, Stu. Stand by 1.

131:16:34 CC:Okay, Stu. What we're thinking is that - you know the shutter kind of goes back and forth anyhow; and if it goes back and forth kind of at the intervalometer setting, and the sP00ls rotate, you know, to indicate that the film is in fact moving, it looks like it may be operating in - in the AUTO mood - in the AUTO mode okay and we could probably be able to get some pictures. Now if that's a completely - you know, if the shutter kind of oscillates, not with respect to the intervalometer setting; it may not be working correctly, and I guess I'm still not quite clear in my own mind that if the shutter's oscillating back and forth at the rate of the intervalometer setting.

131:17:40 Roosa:That's a negative on that one, Ron. It's a fast oscillation, like the check that Ken wanted me to make was the intervalometer set on 60 and - and so every, every second we - the intervalometer triggers and PMC operates, but the shutter in between, is just banging back and forth.

131:18:11 CC:Okay, I understand now.

131:18:18 Roosa:Anu. - and the osciallation on the shutter appears to stop at the time the intervalometer triggers.

131:18:29 CC:Okay--

131:18:31 Roosa:You know, I looked down the lens with a flashlight and I see - I looked down the lens with a flashlight and I see the shutter is sitting there going back and forth and it appears to freeze at the time the intervalometer triggers it ... back again.

131:19:01 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. You faded out again there, I missed your last comment.

131:20:33 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

131:20:39 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

131:20:41 CC:Okay. It looks like you - you're working on the HIGH GAIN there. We got PITCH of minus 84, and YAW - a PITCH of minus 84, and a YAW of 346.

131:21:14 CC:Okay. I think we should have you now, Stu.

131:21:27 Roosa:Yes. It looks - it looks pretty good, now.

131:21:29 CC:Hey, it's beautiful. Okay. When the shutter does stop on the thing there at the 1-second intervals, can you see the shutter slip, at all?

131:21:48 Roosa:No. I - I thought it might stop out there. No, I couldn't. And also when I - when I open - put magazine W in, I noticed the slit was right out in the middle of the - of the magazine there, if that means anything; and I didn?t - couldn?t particularly see the slip, when the - when the shutter stopped. But I can look for that again. You know, it's a little difficult to tell what I'm looking behind, to see whether I really should be able to see the slit or not. But i can't check it out for you right now. We've got the DC camera running off the scientific box, over there. Well, I guess you - unless you don't particularly want the HIGH BIT RATE anyway. But I can go ahead and power it up here in a minute and run through it, while you're on the line and answer any questions.

131:22:07 CC:Okay. It doesn't look like that's going to cost us anything there. Don't forget you got the Langrenus B for your photo target there.

131:22:10 Roosa:Yes. I'm watching for that one.

131:22:16 CC:And, Stu, while I've got you here, I want you to slip over your flight plan there on 132:42 for the north galactic pole attitude. I got a different pitch attitude.

131:22:30 Roosa:Okay. Would you hold that 1?

131:22:32 CC:Okay.

131:25:10 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. OMNI Bravo.

131:28:13 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. I know you're looking out the window there at Langrenus now, but when you set up for the camera there, let?s try a 10 frame per second instead of 60 - 10 frames per minute, I mean, instead of the 60, for the frame rate.

131:28:34 Roosa:Stand by. I?ll get that in a minute.

131:34:14 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Looks like the first thing we ought to whip up you here is some 500-millimeter procedures. So if you've got a place to copy those down - there's about 11 steps on it. And, the next REV we'll use the 500-millimeter.

131:34:41 Roosa:Okay. Stand by.

131:35:09 Roosa:Okay to read the ... right now ... take ...

131:35:14 CC:Stand by 1, Stu. I just barely got you there.

131:35:28 CC:Okay. Kitty Hawk, try the HIGH GAIN, the PITCH, minus 50; YAW, 181.

131:36:11 Roosa:Okay. How do you read now?

131:36:12 CC:Okay. You're real weak, Stu. How do you read me?

131:36:20 Roosa:You're loud and clear. Coming in ...

131:36:23 CC:Okay. I could just barely hear you, but if you're reading me good, why don't you go ahead and let me know when you're ready to copy some 50-millimeter procedures?

131:36:34 Roosa:Okay. I'm ready to copy.

131:36:38 CC:Okay. Step 1, configure camera CM4/EL/500/BW-PCM cable; the 16-millimeter control cable, (f/ll) l/250th, infinity; 42 frames, 5-second intervals; magazine Papa. Step 2, set COAS in left-hand rendezvous window; adjust for plus 10 degrees. VERB - Step 3, VERB 49, manuever to high-resolution photo attitude. And just a note: time to start the maneuver and the maneuver attitude will be updated. Step 4, change your DAP R^ to 11103 and, Stu, we talked about that - whether to use a 2 degree or half degree per second, there. I personally prefer the - you know the, 2 end the R . And, then if you don't quite hack it, you know, ... the load direct. Okay. Step 5 - -

131:38:55 Roosa:...

131:38:57 CC:I missed that, say again.

131:38:59 Roosa:You know I never got a chance to try that ..., but I'll, if I get a chance ...

131:39:12 CC:Okay. I didn't quite hear that, but I think you got it. Step 5, zero DET. Step 6, configure the DSE; HIGH BIT RATE, RECORD FORWARD, COMMAND RESET. Step 7, at T-start, EL camera on and DET startup. Step 8, at T-start plus 1 minute, ORDEAL, pitch 305, track Descartes with COAS.

131:40:31 CC:Are you still with me, Stu?

131:40:43 CC:Okay, I can't read you at all, now, Stu.

131:40:53 Roosa:. . .

131:41:14 CC:Okay, Stu, I'm going to go ahead and read you step 9. At T-start plus 3 minute 28 second, ORDEAL, pitch 215; terminate tracking; EL off. Step 10, configure DSE to LOW BIT RATE. Step 11, record frame number.

131:42:03 CC:And, in the blind, that's it.

131:42:18 Roosa:Okay, how do you read, Ron?

131:42:21 CC:Okay, you're really weak, Stu. I don't know, if you - if you can read the ACC meter on the high gain, there. Maybe I can read you, if you can keep the high gain on.

131:43:35 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston, let me try one more time here. If you're reading me okay, I?ve got some more flight-plan updates for you here.

131:43:50 Roosa:Okay, I'm reading you loud and clear, Ron.

131:43:52 CC:Okay, Stu, you're still down, but let's do the flight-plan update. At 132:4o, change your pitch attitude on the north galactic pole there, change the pitch attitude to 280; HIGH GAIN angles, PITCH, minus 81; YAW 210.

131:44:35 CC:Okay, skip on over in your solo book there to time at 133:31.

131:44:57 CC:Delete the VERB 49 maneuver to the LTC attitude. And delete, at 133:40, the proceg - PRO to start the pitch rate. And delete all reference to LTC photography, target 2/8. Okay, at 134:00, add -You still with me, Stu?

131:46:01 Roosa:No, I didn't get all of it, you dropped out for a while. I picked back up here at 133:40.

131:46:16 CC:Okay, Stu, at 133:31 -

131:46:37 Roosa:Go ahead.

131:46:47 CC:Okay, Stu, at 133:31, delete the VERB 49 maneuver to the LTC target. And at 133:40 - -

131:47:00 Roosa:I got that, forget it.

131:47:03 CC:Say again.

131:47:07 Roosa:I said forget AOS. ... VERB 49 for the C0AS ...

131:48:15 CC:Man, this comm is terrible; I can't read you.

131:48:25 Roosa:Okay, if we're going to stop here now, I've got to get on to the . . .

131:48:31 CC:Okay.

132:08:14 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. Noise stopped down here, we may have some comm now.

132:08:25 Roosa:Hey, how about that, Houston? Looks like we got a good signal strength.

132:08:31 CC:Beautiful. Man, oh man, that's great to hear your voice like that. Okay, Stu. I want to make sure that we get our 500-millimeter stuff up to you, and make sure you have that before we do anything else.

132:08:46 Roosa:Okay.

132:08:51 CC:Okay, I'm not sure where I faded out on the update I was going to give to you. I passed up delete the vertical LTC photography stuff at 133:30. Did you get that?

132:09:10 Roosa:That's affirmative. I got a 133:30, no VERB 49 maneuver, no PRO at ORDEAL 328, and delete all LTC targets , 2 dash 18.

132:09:23 CC:Okay there now. How about over at 134?

132:09:31 Roosa:No, I didn't get anything there.

132:09:33 CC:Okay, at 134, add - I've got a VERB 49 to roll, 0; pitch, 248; and yaw, 0. Over.

132:09:55 Roosa:Okay, at 134, VERB 49 to 0, 248, and 0.

132:09:59 CC:Okay. And then use 500-millimeter porcedures, and did you get all of those?

132:10:14 Roosa:That's affirmative. Let me just recap here slightly.

132:10:17 CC:Okay. Wait 1, Stu. Let me get you your T-start time for the 500-millimeter there is at 134:20 -at 134:20, and T-start time is 134:20:19.

132:10:38 Roosa:Okay. I had the ... and now tell me again, T-start.

132:10:46 CC:Say again, Stu.

132:10:51 Roosa:I did not get that last bit about the times. Give me those again.

132:10:55 CC:Okay. At 134:20 in the flight plan there, T-start is 134:20 - 134:20:19. Okay. And, now we can go ahead and review those 500-millimeter procedures.

132:11:16 Roosa:Okay.

132:11:32 Roosa:Okay. I'm going to configure the camera CM4, EL, 500, black and white, PCM cable, and 16-millimeter control cable, f/II, l/250th, infinity. I'm going to shoot 42 frames with me manually flicking them off every 5 seconds. I'll use magazine P, P as in Papa. And, I'll use the C0AS, set on 10 degrees, and do the VERB 49 maneuver. Probably won't change the DAP, last tracking went real well at MINIMUM LMPULSE.

132:12:24 CC:Okay, we'll - look, while he's talking about that tracking - -

132:12:31 Roosa:I'll zero the - I'll zero the event timer. I'll configure the DSE, HIGH BIT RATE, RECORD, FORWARD, COMMAND RESET. I guess I'll do that just prior to T-start. At T-start, I'll turn the camera on, start the event timer, and at T-start plus a minute, I should be in an ORDEAL pitch of 305, and I'll start the C0AS track of Descartes; and at T-start plus 328, should be around an ORDEAL pitch at 215. I'll terminate the track, turn the camera off, got to LOW BIT RATE, record the frame number.

132:13:12 CC:Okay. Sounds real good there, Stu. Looks like you got it under control. I don't know, have you ever used that' 16-millimeter camera instead of the intervalometer, you know, on the PCM cable?

132:13:26 Roosa:No, I sure haven't.

132:13:28 CC:Okay. I've checked that out real good; and, every time you punch it, just like on a 16-millimeter, you take a picture, you know. And it'll reach all the way over to your left hand there, so you got that in your left hand and flipping away with your right hand on the MINIMUM LMPULSE, you know.

132:13:47 Roosa:Okay. That shouldn?t be any problem. That COAS track and MINIMUM LMPULSE is extremely smooth., Ron. It just hangs right there.

132:13:56 CC:Beautiful. Okay, the only difference as you notice; the rest of them are going to be at a zero roll so you'll be pitching the opposite direction on the thing as you did then, you did for the one for the - the last pass there.

132:14:12 Roosa:Okay.

132:14:14 CC:And, I got some - -

132:14:15 Roosa:I'm flexible, I'll be able to handle that.

132:14:19 CC:Beautiful, I'm sure you can. Okay, at AOS, I got some AOS PITCH and YAW angles for you. At about 133.50, in there.

132:14:51 Roosa:Okay. Go ahead.

132:14:53 CC:Okay. And, PITCH of minus 59, and YAW plus 345, instead of OMNI B, there.

132:15:10 Roosa:Okay. In lieu of OMNI B, PITCH, minus 59; YAW, plus 345.

132:15:15 CC:Roger. You'll be coming over the hill there in your lunar libration attitude.

132:15:29 Roosa:Okay. And, the - on magazine Q on that vertical stereo, I ended up on frame number 187.

132:15:38 CC:Roger. 187 on magazine Q. And, on page 33 there, do you have your torquing and angles for your P52?

132:15:51 Roosa:Roger. Minus OO.O36, minus 00.157, plus 00.091 at a time of 131:18:30.

132:16:09 CC:Roger. Minus 0.036, minus 0.157, plus 0.091, at 131:18:30.

132:16:20 Roosa:That's affirmative.

132:16:22 CC:Okay. Looks like you may have some time to mess around with this LTC, probably around 134, 35 or somewhere around there. Maybe before that. But, basically, it looks like it - Well, we're really not sure that it works or not, but we think it probably won't. But as a final check on it, if you get a chance, do the same procedures, as kind of before. Except, put your frame rate down to 10 frames per minute instead of 60. And, that'll be a slower operation there, and kind of observe, first of all, looking through the lens you should be able to see the shutter slit or at least a piece of tape-looking-like stuff, you know, where the shutter slit is; and kind of get an idea of what's happening to the shutter slit if you can. And, from what I understand, what you said before is that, it looks like it's zigging back and forth until the intervalometer hits - hits the thing, and then it kind of stops for a second or something, and then it starts zigging back and forth, again. Is that kind of correct?

132:17:33 Roosa:That's affirmative. That's - that's the way it looked a while ago.

132:17:40 CC:Okay.

132:17:41 Roosa:It freezes on the intervalometer ... trips.

132:17:46 CC:Okay. I understand it freezes when the intervalometer - kind of trips the system, so to speak.

132:17:56 Roosa:That's true, and it also does it when you have the ... in signal and you push the button.

132:18:03 CC:I don't know what the problem is; we've got a good signal strength.

132:18:06 CC:You faded out on that one, Stu, I missed it.

132:18:14 Roosa:Okay. And it has the same operation in both switch signals, when you push the signal ... button.

132:18:24 CC:Okay. You might try tweaking up your HIGH GAIN there a little bit, Stu. I can't hear you.

132:18:35 CC:YAW is plus 210.

132:18:49 Roosa:I'm showing a real good signal strength, Ron.

132:18:53 CC:Okay. You're just real weak, but clear now. So, I think I can hear it.

132:19:01 Roosa:Okay. How's that?

132:19:07 CC:Okay. Real weak, but clear, I think.

132:20:01 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

132:20:06 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston; Kitty Hawk.

132:20:08 CC:Okay, Stu. We're going to rewind - start the tape recorder rewinding at LOS on the thing. And, when you see the barber pole, indicating that it's completely rewound, then go ahead and do your normal procedures, and start at LOW BIT RATE, you know, COMMAND RESET, and et cetera.

132:20:28 Roosa:Yes. That will be a good deal, you know at the start of that stereostrip, I checked the tape at LOS, and it was gray, and by the time we got to the start of the stereostrip it had - I guess it hadn't been rewound.

132:20:44 CC:Roger.

132:20:45 Roosa:I wound it back, and we only got about 45 seconds of HIGH BIT RATE on the start of that stereostrip.

132:20:54 CC:Okay. Understand.

132:21:20 CC:Okay, Stu. We got about 2 minutes of - until LOS, and you might be advised that Ed and A1 are out roaming around the lunar surface, working up toward Cone - Cone Crater. I kind of lost track of exactly where they are but - -

132:21:37 Roosa:Sounds ... Sounds real good. Thank you.

132:22:44 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. About 30 seconds to LOS. Your 180 for REV 27 is 133:28:29.

132:23:00 Roosa:Okay. 133:28:29.

132:23:03 CC:Roger. LOS and AOS are off about a minute.

132:23:10 Roosa:Okay. Hey, Ron, I - I find I can find my way without using that 180 time. Why don't we just discontinue that if things - ...

132:23:25 CC:I'll catch it next time around; I missed it.

132:47:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 27

133:11:33 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. I've got your data now.

133:12:32 Roosa:Hello, Houston. How do you read Kitty Hawk?

133:12:36 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. I think I got you that time. Kind of weak though.

133:12:44 Roosa:Okay. It looks like we're in lockup, here. You?re loud and clear.

133:15:09 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We got rid of the background noise now; probably have some good comm here.

133:15:18 Roosa:Roger, Ron. That - that's the highest signal strength I've seen so far.

133:15:23 CC:Man, that's the best I've heard you. Sounds real good.

133:15:29 CC:Hey, Stu, I guess the one thing I really didn't get out of you in talking about the Hycon camera, do you have any confidence - confidence at all in that thing?

133:15:48 Roosa:Well, I guess I really don't know the inner workings well enough to - to say that, Ron. The racket sure does sound bad; but, when you see the - see the. frame counter going, you figure It's doing something. I don't really know. I didn't get a chance to look at it. I thought, as soon as we finish up here, I'll - I've got it out; and, we get a chance, why, we'll - we'll run through an exercise here with - with you on the loop and maybe we can then arrive at some conclusion.

133:16:26 CC:Okay.

133:16:48 CC:Just for your information, A1 and Ed are just about on the edge of Cone Crater now.

133:16:59 Roosa:Oh, great. How was the climb?

133:17:03 CC:Well, it was a little further away, I think, than they really thought it was going to be. They're going to go - go up on the west rim, I guess, instead of the east rim. What it looks like right now. It's kind of the southwest rim. They're sending back all kinds of good-deal information about the soil and texture and what have you - the rocks.

133:17:50 CC:And Stu, I guess you've been taking a look - haven you? - at the - in our landmark book there in the De - Descartes COAS pictures?

133:18:02 Roosa:That's affirmative.

133:18:03 CC:Roger.

133:22:20 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

133:22:26 Roosa:Go, Houston.

133:22:27 CC:Okay, Stu. I've got some HIGH GAIN angles for you for after the COAS maneuver. A PITCH of minus 48 and a YAW of 177.

133:22:51 Roosa:Okay. PITCH, minus 48; YAW, 177-

133:22:54 CC:Roger.

133:23:27 Roosa:Well, I sure hate to ruin this good comm, but I?ll start my maneuver.

133:23:31 CC:Okay.

133:24:39 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. OMNI Bravo.

133:28:38 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. OMNI Charlie.

133:46:44 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We should have you now.

133:46:53 Roosa:Okay, Ron. You're loud and clear.

133:46:54 CC:Okay. You're loud and clear there, Stu. How does it go?

133:47:01 Roosa:Okay. Went real smooth, and the frame number is 48.

133:47:06 CC:Roger. Frame 48. And you think you got some good flicks, huh?

133:47:15 Roosa:That?s affirmative. I was touching it off once every 5 seconds and it was - it held right in there. And they should be good.

133:47:25 CC:Beautiful! Okay. I guess you?re pressing then to checking out the LTC, right?

133:47:36 Roosa:That's affirmative. I'll get it stretched out here and get it up and then get on with you and tell you what I see.

133:47:45 CC:Okay.

133:55:01 Roosa:Okay, Houston. Kitty Hawk.

133:55:04 CC:Roger. Go, Stu.

133:55:07 Roosa:Okay. As far as whether or not the shutter is oscillating or going in one direction, I can't tell. We did run out of film on this magazine W and that made it a little easier to see in there. With this shutter sticking like this, you're going to expose any film underneath it because, you know, it's moving at fast enough rate that I can see through and see the platen now. I can see the holes in the platen with the shutter oscillating. It goes fast. I'd say it's a couple of three times a second oscillation. Or at least that's the noise level, now. I'm not sure what the shutter's doing it's moving so fast. In AUTO and in single frame, when you push the button, the shutter does stop for just an instant, and just randomly, you will see the slit. Now it's not always there. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it isn't, sometimes It's a different width on the slit. Now, why don't we start there, and then I'll entertain the questions.

133:56:37 CC:Okay, Stu. That sounds like that's a good explanation of what's happening. The shutter is oscillating back and forth and it does expose the film every time it oscillates, it looks like. And even in single frame, it stops - -

133:56:52 Roosa:Yes. Well, I don't know whether - -

133:56:55 CC:Yes. Go ahead, Stu.

133:57:00 Roosa:I don't know whether it's oscillating or whether, you know, it's - I guess it would have to be though. That thing flips back and forth. Suffice it to say, there's always a slit over the film, the thing's moving so fast. I mean I can see through to the platen.

133:57:33 CC:Okay, Stu, as far as the oscillating or whipping all of the way around, what we simulated here on the ground, is that the shutter just goes around and around in there. And you know - you get a real clicking - dot dot dot dot - you know, something like that. And I guess you've tried your frame rates at 10 frames a second.

133:57:53 Roosa:That?s affirmative, it's on 10, and the interval-ometer works. And on the cycle of 10 a minute, why the shutter stops and then takes back up again.

133:58:10 CC:Okay. Is the counter counting at the intervalometer setting, more or less?

133:58:19 Roosa:That's affirmative.

133:58:21 CC:Okay. So, my LMPression is that it's getting multiple exposures on each frame. Is that correct?

133:58:39 Roosa:Yes, that would be it. Any film that's behind is going to be exposed as the slit moves back and forth. And like I say, the rate is fast enough that with your eye, you know, you can look right through the shutter in the center and see the holes in the platen while it's doing it's clicking thing.

133:59:04 CC:Okay, understand.

133:59:15 Roosa:And maybe if you could drum up any more questions, why - you know, this is a pretty good time; I've got the beast out here.

133:59:22 CC:Okay, we've got our photo guys, here, I'll give them a poll and see if they've got any questions.

133:59:29 Roosa:Okay. Hey, Ron, I want to make sure I'm making myself clear; so, keep asking me until you get across what you want to know.

133:59:43 CC:Okay, Stu.

134:00:29 CC:Okay, Stu. One question here. While the curtain is - or the shutter, you know, is clicking, sliding back and forth there, is the frame counter counting at that time or is it only counting - you know, kind of like when it's supposed to?

134:00:50 Roosa:The frame counter is counting when it is supposed to.

134:01:02 CC:Okay, the frame counter is counting when it's supposed to, and while the shutter is erratic, flipping back and forth or round and around, whatever it's doing, the frame counter is just standing still. Is that correct?

134:01:17 Roosa:That is affirmative. It does not move with this clicking or with the shutter oscillation. It only counts either when you hit the single frame or when the intervalometer times.

134:01:32 CC:Okay, understand.

134:02:11 CC:Okay, Stu. It looks like we're still so uncertain on the Hycon, that we want to press on and use the 500 millimeter on the next REV. And we will not use the Hycon on the next REV.

134:02:43 Roosa:Okay, I guess we need to talk a little bit about how we're going to do this, Ron.

134:02:54 CC:Okay, I've got some flight-plan updates here for you. Starting out at 135:20 in your solo book, there.

134:03:03 Roosa:Okay. 135:20; I'm there. .

134:03:05 CC:Okay. Delete the VERB 49 maneuver and press on to 135:35. Delete the ORB RATE.

134:03:31 CC:Delete - I hate to say this - delete King photo, before there at 135 degrees, about 45. And also delete the fan Crater strip there, target 4.

134:04:10 Roosa:Okay, I've got you. Go ahead.

134:04:14 CC:Okay. And, of course, delete all references to the LTC photo on target 6. And then at 136:00, on page 38.

134:04:30 Roosa:Okay, go ahead.

134:04:32 CC.:Okay. And VERB 49 to roll 0, pitch 249, and yaw 0. Use 500-millimeter procedures. T-start, 136:18:40.

134:05:41 CC:And, Kitty Hawk, Houston. Did you copy that?

134:05:54 Roosa:Roger. Okay, a readback. We're marking off the 135:20, no VERB 49 maneuver; 135:35, no PRO on the ORDEAL; and marked off in blood is the King photos, the Fan Crater photos; deleting any reference to LTC target 6; and, at 136, we'll do a VERB 49 maneuver to 0, 249, 0; use the 500-millimeter procedures; T-start at 136:18:40.

134:06:31 CC:Okay, that's good. And then I've got your map update for REV 28 on page 37, there.

134:06:42 Roosa:Okay, now. This is another track of Descartes. Is that right, Ron?

134:06:50 CC:That's affirmative. And stand by 1. I may have a slightly different aim point there.

134:07:00 CC:That's affirmative.

134:07:01 Roosa:Okay. Ron, have you got your Descartes C0AS out?

134:07:10 CC:Sure do.

134:07:13 Roosa:Okay, mark down the aim point. The aim point is shown on it, that crater right by the center of the X.

134:07:23 CC:Right.

134:07:24 Roosa:That did show up when I first started. So, see right up toward the top of the page, two craters right together? I meant move up about a - oh a quarter of an inch from the center. Can you see a little doublet there?

134:07:41 CC:Okay. I think I'm with you. Yes.

134:07:46 Roosa:Okay. That was my aim point on that pass. Those -those two showed up better at first, before this one down here. So I picked up on them. And you know that's essentially between the two bright ones and about 3/16ths of an inch up from the center of the C0AS as shown on it.

134:08:12 CC:Okay. I think - I'm not sure which way is up. Is it the bottom of the page or the top of the page now that you're talking about? I - I got a little doublet kind of - -

134:08:22 Roosa:Okay.

134:08:23 CC:- - toward - toward the bottom of the page.

134:08:27 Roosa:No, no. Take - take the center of the C0AS and move toward the top of the page about a quarter of an inch. They're not really touching each other, but there are two small craters there, just to the left of the center line of the C0AS.

134:08:43 .CC:Okay. I've got you. I've got you.

134:08:49 Roosa:Okay, that was my aim point on that - on that pass, and it - it stayed pretty good.

134:08:58 CC:Okay, real good. Do you think you can pick up the - you know the - the aim point as on the COAS? As - as shown on the picture for this REV?

134:09:12 Roosa:Yes, I think so. I - I can probably get down there ...

134:09:20 CC:Okay. That'll be real good. And then if we have - -

134:09:22 Roosa:Before we go any further - Hey, Ron, before we press on, would anybody object to me going wide dead band here? Would that affect the comm or anything?

134:09:34 CC:Yes, it does, Stu. We talked about that, and you're fat on fuel. So let's stay in narrow dead band here, so we'll keep the comm. You're - -

134:09:48 Roosa:Okay - -

134:09:49 CC:- - You're about 90 - -

134:09:50 Roosa:- - Very good then. I interrupted - -

134:09:54 CC:- - You're - -

134:09:55 Roosa:Go ahead, Ron.

134:09:56 CC:- - You're about 90 pounds above the flight plan there.

134:10:11 Roosa:Okay. So on this pass I'll try to hit this aim point dead center. Actually, I was under the LMPression that the place we really want to aim is a little to the south and a little to the west from where the center of this is marked here on this map. Why don't you verify that for me, and we'll talk about it when we come around.

134:10:36 CC:Okay. Yes, I remember ... talking about it, and I was going to make a little equilateral triangle with those two craters that were right in the -pretty close to the center of the X, you know, just a little bit, like you say, to the south there. And I'll verify that for sure, though.

134:10:56 Roosa:Okay.

134:11:23 CC:And, Stu, here I've got your map update for REV 28 there on page 37-

134:11:35 Roosa:Okay. Go ahead.

134:11:38 CC:Okay. 180 is 135:26:51-

134:11:49 Roosa:Okay. 135:26:51, and guess I was talking about this when we went AOS [sic] last time. I - I'm really not - I - I don't need that time. I can -I can find my way around real good. Why don't we just dispense with padding that up and save the chatter?

134:12:09 CC:I figured you'd say that. You know we've had real good training on where we are up there so - plus the fact you can whip in the P21 if you really get lost on the thing, so it sounds like a good idea.

134:12:31 Roosa:Okay. And do you have data on me now, Ron?

134:12:36 CC:That's affirmative. We even have HIGH BIT RATE this time.

134:12:45 Roosa:Well, how about that? I know after all this talking and everything, I just happened to look over here. My cabin pressure is - is up. What do you say about it there? I'm reading on the gage here about 5.8 or so.

134:13:05 CC:Let me make a quick check with EEC0M.

134:13:20 CC:Yes, Stu. You know you pumped it up before you went to bed last night, and the - just the ... accumulator is kind of - you know building it up a little bit. And you just got a real tight cabin. We don't think it's a problem at all.

134:13:40 Roosa:Okay. You just don't breathe much when you're in here by yourself, huh?

134:13:43 CC:Yes, I guess that's it.

134:13:56 CC:And, Stu, go for the point as depicted in the COAS picture.

134:14:08 Roosa:Okay. I'll put her on there dead center.

134:14:11 CC:Okay.

134:14:52 Roosa:Okay, Ron. Just to make sure I understand here now. Really, I won't do anything the way the flight plan is now, until 136 when I go for another Descartes track? You verify that?

134:15:09 CC:Yes, that's right. And, let me do some checking here. I don't know if you're going to be able to sneak in any pictures of King, you know, as you're coming up there or not.

134:15:26 Roosa:Okay. Well, I'll - I can use the time to get this thing stowed, ready for my hiking buddies.

134:15:33 CC:Okay. Speaking of your hiking buddies, they're about - It looks like a little more than halfway back from Cone, heading back toward the LM. Okay. One other flight-plan change I got here on the - -

134:15:49 Roosa:Okay. Real fine.

134:15:50 CC:- - reference to the batteries. At - Flip over to 137.

134:16:05 Roosa:Okay, 137*

134:16:07 CC:Okay. And put, "Charge battery A," at that point in time. And take battery B off of charge at that time, instead of at 136:15.

134:16:34 Roosa:Okay. I'll move "Charge battery A" from 136:15 to 137-

134:16:39 CC:Roger.

134:20:34 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston here. You got about a minute to go before you go around the horn.

134:20:43 Roosa:Okay. We'll see you in a few minutes.

134:20:46 CC:Okay.

134:45:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 28

135:09:37 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. How we doing?

135:09:43 Roosa:Howdy. Getting along real fine.

135:09:48 CC:Okay, Stu. We've got you this time, I think.

135:10:00 Roosa:Yes. I'm reading you loud and clear.

135:10:03 CC:Okay, Stu. We'd like to give the high gain a chance here to do its stuff with the SERVO ELECTRONICS POWER in SECONDARY. So what we'd like to have you do is go to SECONDARY with the HIGH GAIN SERVO ELECTRONICS POWER switch. Switch your - While your TRACK mode in MANUAL, set in a PITCH of minus 58, a YAW of 185, and BEAM WIDTH to WIDE. And then go into a normal acquisition, you know, trying to get it to AUTO and then MEDIUM and then down to NARROW. If for some reason that doesn't work, well then go on back to the way we've been - been doing it there in MANUAL, MEDIUM, and PRIMARY ELECTRONICS.

135:11:04 Roosa:Okay. Now, the ELECTRONICS are in SECONDARY now, Ron. They have been since yesterday.

135:11:12 CC:Oh, okay. Well, why don't we press on anyhow and try a normal acquisition on the thing, then? Put your PITCH to minus 58, YAW to 185.

135:11:22 Roosa:All right.

135:11:24 CC:And we'll see if it'll track in AUTO at all, or if it'll - -

135:11:27 Roosa:Okay. We'll give it a go.

135:11:54 CC:We got NARROW.

135:11:57 Roosa:Well, how about that, sports fans! There's AUTO and NARROW, good and solid.

135:12:01 CC:Yes. It worked, looks like. Okay. Let's go ahead and leave it there, Stu. And let's see if it'll track when you start to maneuver to the C0AS tracking attitude.

135:12:17 Roosa:Okay.

135:12:59 CC:And, Stu, for your information, A1 and Ed are back at the LM. Al's down there hitting golf balls. Seeing how far he can hit them.

135:13:11 Roosa:How's that coming out?

135:13:13 CC:A1 - looks like he had. a couple of slices there, but then finally go - got a hold of one and really drove it down the old lunar surface.

135:14:00 CC:Stu, you doing anything now? Do you want to talk about these normal docking procedures, changed there on page 52?

135:14:12 Roosa:Okay. Just a second. Let me float out from under the couch here and get my book.

135:14:17 CC:Okay.

135:14:49 Roosa:Okay. I'm on page 52.

135:14:54 CC:Okay, Stu. Let me talk about it here a minute -for a little bit. As you know, normal procedures are we go whipping on in there, we get contact with the drogue, and then, as soon as we get capture, we go to CMC, FREE. Well, the basic difference there is that we want the LM to do a little bit of thrusting. If for some reason, you know, it doesn't go to - the capture light, just don't capture, when you make contact. So, we just want you to press on in there, contact the drogue, and report contact to the LM. And then at that point, the IM is going to do a plus X, And, then as soon as you get capture on the thing, you go to CMC, FREE.

135:15:55 CC:So at about 1 ? ?

135:15:58 Roosa:Okay. Go ahead, Ron.

135:16:06 CC:Okay. Just to have it down in writing there, where it says translate to capture latch at about 144:07 or 08 in there somewhere, change that to, "translate to a contact with drogue."

135:16:32 Roosa:Okay. "Translate to contact with drogue."

135:16:34 CC:And then add, "report contact to the LM," immediately following that.

135:16:47 Roosa:Okay. I?ll write that down. I'm sure I won't have to tell him.

135:16:50 CC:I don't think so either (laughing). But, that's his cue to go ahead and plus-X, if necessary, you know.

135:17:03 Roosa:Okay. I've got that - -

135:17:04 CC:Okay.

135:17:05 Roosa:- - Translate to contact with drogue, report contact to LM, and CMC, FREE, at capture.

135:17:12 CC:Yes. That's right. CMC, FREE, at capture. The thing we didn't want to be is have you in CMC, FREE, and the IM pushing against you, you know? In other words, don't go to CMC, FREE, until you get capture.

135:17:28 Roosa:Okay.

135:17:29 CC:And, that's it.

135:17:35 Roosa:Very good.

135:22:13 Roosa:..., Ron that S-band's hanging - the antenna's hanging right in there. We should have done that days ago, huh?

135:22:18 CC:Yes. It looks like it's done pretty good so far. Let me see how the signal strength's doing with INC0 here.

135:22:38 CC:Okay, Stu. It looks like it's tracking okay here. When you lose the high gain, switch to OMNI Delta.

135:22:49 Roosa:OMNI Delta.

135:22:59 CC:The guys are really having a ball down there on the lunar surface throwing away their tools. Making javelins out of them and everything.

135:31:10 Roosa:Houston, 14.

135:31:15 CC:0k - Okay, Stu. I can just barely read you.

135:31:22 Roosa:Disregard me. I was just going to ask you a question about the EVA. I'll catch you later.

135:38:00 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. If you read, it's about 30 seconds from T-start time.

135:44:00 Roosa:Houston, do you read Kitty Hawk?

135:44:02 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk. This is Houston. We?ve got you now.

135:44:10 Roosa:Okay. Well, that should have been right on the target, Ron. And my frame counter is 87.

135:44:19 CC:Roger. 87 on that one. And while I think about it, on page 35 there, we missed your percent remaining on the galactic survey and lunar libration -camera.

135:45:03 Roosa:Okay. After the lunar libration, I'm reading 60 percent.

135:45:07 CC:Roger. 60 percent.

135:50:27 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Got too much background noise here. We're trying to get the high gain. Can you roll left 60 degrees? And then try to acquire on the HIGH GAIN a PITCH of minus 50, YAW of plus 50.

135:50:56 Roosa:Okay. Ron. Let me hold off for about 2 or 3 minutes, if you would, please.

135:51:01 CC:Okay.

135:51:10 CC:And then when you get there, we'll be giving you an update, and also I've got some P24 pads for you.

135:51:21 Roosa:Okay.

135:54:40 Roosa:Hey, Ren. Give me those HIGH GAIN angles again.

135:55:39 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Those angles were PITCH at minus 50, the YAW at plus 50.

135:56:39 Roosa:Houston, you read Kitty Hawk?

135:56:41 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. Man, that's a lot better on the ears, now.

135:56:52 CC:Okay; you want to whip it - whip into P00 and ACCEPT, and we'll ship you up a state vector and also a clock SYNC.

135:57:06 Roosa:Okay on P00 and ACCEPT.

135:57:10 CC:Okay. And you about ready to start copying pads on page 40 there for RP-4?

135:57:21 Roosa:I'm ready; go ahead.

135:57:22 CC:Okay. Tx, 137:38:43; 43:33; 45:13; 46:01. It's south 02. Ansgarius N, 137:51:34; 56:24; 58:04, 58:52, south 06. Okay, for DE-2, T^, 138:11:23; 16:13; 17=53; l8:41; north 08. Okay, for Encke, E, T , 138:31:14; 36:04; 37:44; 38:32; south 22. And read back.

135:59:20 Roosa:Okay, RP-4, 137:38:43; 43:33; 45:13; 46:01; south 02. Ansgarius N, 137:51=34; 56:24; 58:04; 58:52; south 06. 138:11:23; 16:13; 17:53; l8:41; north 08. 138 - Encke E, 138:31:14; 36:04; 37:44; 38:32; south 22.

136:00:20 CC:Beautiful readback there, Stu.

136:00:26 Roosa:Okay, we're all set.

136:00:30 CC:And A1 and Ed are back in the LM, now.

136:00:41 Roosa:How many golf balls did A1 have with him?

136:00:45 CC:Well, I thought I saw three real good swings, there.

136:00:52 Roosa:Great.

136:00:55 CC:And, Kitty Hawk; Houston. The computer is yours.

136:01:02 Roosa:Okay. Thank you.

136:02:19 CC:Hey, Kitty Hawk; Houston.

136:02:24 Roosa:Go ahead.

136:02:26 CC:We noticed - maybe a little more fuel usage there. Did possibly you hit a couple of DIRECT switches maybe? On that COAS target or something?

136:02:39 Roosa:Yes.

136:02:40 CC:Yes.

136:02:41 Roosa:Yes, I did. The - You need three hands to get that going where you've got one hand on that fool camera control and then to throw the switch; so, I was taking a couple of pictures and I used the DIRECT for a little bit there.

136:02:57 CC:Okay, that clears it up. I figured that maybe what it might have been and just wanted to check.

136:03:49 CC:And, Kitty Hawk; Houston. If you want to dig out your G&C Checklist there, on page G9-4, I got a couple of constants to change there in that erasable load.

136:04:18 Roosa:Okay. I'm ready to copy.

136:04:21 CC:Okay. On page G9-4, column Delta, line 10, change it from 02210; change it to 02263*

136:04:49 Roosa:Okay, 9-4, under Delta, line 10, now reads 02263.

136:04:57 CC:Okay, and then on line 11, same column, Delta, change it from 36321; change it to 15472.

136:05:16 Roosa:Okay. 15472 for Delta, line 11.

136:05:22 CC:Okay. And these are those - the erasable locations that we changed yesterday on the thrust model, you know.

136:05:31 Roosa:Okay.

136:05:46 CC:Hey, Stu, just out of curiosity, when you whipped by Lansberg Bravo there, did you get - you think you got some 250-millimeter pictures of that area? You know when you had the long pass?

136:06:03 Roosa:Yes. Yes, I should have got some - some good ones of Lansberg B.

136:06:10 CC:Okay.

136:06:11 Roosa:It was - They were 500.

136:06:14 CC:Oh, okay. Beautiful.

136:07:35 CC:Okay, Stu. You can go ahead and whip into vide dead band there for a while, if you want. It looks like we've got a good high gain now.

136:07:47 Roosa:Okay.

136:07:49 CC:And also, in looking through this P24 there, it looks like we're changing the shutter speeds on each one of those things for the DAC. Just a reminder.

136:08:02 Roosa:Okay.

136:08:38 CC:And, Stu, just for a matter of information here on further planning, right now we're looking at REV 30 - where we've got our zero-phase things -the forwards and backwards. And we'll probably go ahead and do the backwards zero phase, but not the forward, and do another C0AS maneuver on the Descartes area.

136:09:06 Roosa:Okay. Sounds good.

136:09:20 CC:And if you got a half a minute here, you might pull out your Descartes C0AS picture again, and I can explain your aim point for that pass.

136:09:36 Roosa:Okay. I've got it right here.

136:09:38 CC:Okay. As you look at the page, you've got a picture of the C0AS in there. And - on the east side, or toward the bottom of the page, you can see a little doublet about 1 and - 1 and a half marks or 1 and a third marks down from the center of the COAS. Right on the vertical COAS line.

136:10:13 Roosa:Yes. I've got that.

136:10:16 CC:Okay. It's just east - -

136:10:19 Roosa:Is that the aim point?

136:10:20 CC:That's the aim point, by golly.

136:10:27 Roosa:What are we doing way over there?

136:10:29 CC:Well, it's just a little further east than the two bright craters, you know.

136:10:38 Roosa:Okay. Yes.

136:10:46 CC:And - -

136:10:47 Roosa:Okay. I'll make that the aim point.

136:10:48 CC:Okay. See, and then you started out a little bit west of the aim point on the map, and then we got one right at the aim point. And then we're getting these just a little further east, so we'll have some stereostrips quite a ways through the area there.

136:11:30 CC:Okay. Another thing, Kitty Hawk. To help balance the quads a little bit there, you can whip back into VERB 48 there and use Bravo Delta for roll.

136:11:47 Roosa:Okay.

136:13:25 CC:Hey, Stu. You might like to know - I don't know where they're going to put all those rocks they found down there on the surface, but the LM was full, so you better find a place for them.

136:13:41 Roosa:Yes. That's what I been doing, is trying to get things organized for the avalanche.

136:13:46 CC:(Laughter ) Okay.

136:18:13 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

136:18:18 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

136:18:21 CC:Okay, Stu. We got about 2 minutes until LOS here. Just for a little bit of advance planning, we're pretty sure we'd like to bring the probe back with you. So - and right now we're thinking about stashing it down there between A-6 and A-10, you know, down betw - betw - below the LMP's couch there somewhere.

136:18:59 Roosa:Okay. Well, you know that - Okay. You know, you don't put the probe between A-6 and A-10, you know; it goes on top of A-10.

136:19:13 CC:(Laughter) Yes, I know, Stu. It's - I don't know - it's - We'll work out the stowage down there. But it looks like maybe you can stick the point, you know, down in there somewhere, or at least get part of it down between the two of them. And I realize there isn't much room. It'll be mostly on top.

136:19:42 Roosa:Yes, that ought to take care of the L-over-D problem.

136:19:45 CC:Yes. RETRO's kind of happy about that.

136:44:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 29

137:09:19 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We've got you on LOW BIT RATE now. Lot of background noise here, and I probably won't be able to hear you very much, but you're in a - an - a not - not-as-good high-gain antenna attitude. .

137:09:40 Roosa:Okay.

137:10:56 CC:And, Kitty Hawk; Houston. I show you about 30 seconds from T^ on the Ansgarius N.

137:11:06 Roosa:Roger.

137:15:35 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Time to start your camera and shutter speed should be l/250th.

137:35:05 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. I missed your T^ time call there; but it's time to start the camera, now, on EE-2.

137:41:57 Roosa:Okay, Houston. Kitty Hawk. I'll give you those gyro torquing angles in a minute.

137:42:12 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. You can try it. I might be able to copy them.

137:42:21 Roosa:I'll catch you in about 2 or 3 minutes, Ron.

137:42:24 CC:Okay.

137:51:04 Roosa:Well, I - Houston, 14.

137:51:09 CC:Okay. You're way down in the mud there, Kitty Hawk, but go.

137:51:15 Roosa:Okay. I saw the LM again when I went across them.

137:51:22 CC:Hey, by golly. That's amazing; that?s great.

137:51:29 Roosa:Yes. It's a little harder without the long shadow that it was putting out yesterday. I - what I was doing was just playing around. I should have been gotten P24 and marked on it, but that was a good mark that I - I mean a good pass that I had yesterday.

137:51:46 CC:Roger.

137:51:50 CC:Hi, Stu.

137:51:55 Roosa:Hi, Fredo.

137:51:57 CC:I haven't got to talk to you in a couple of days.

137:52:04 Roosa:Well, you've been tied up.

137:52:08 CC:Yes. Just a little bit.

137:55:31 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. The camera ought to be running.

138:04:51 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk. The lack of noise is music to my ears.

138:04:59 Roosa:Okay.

138:05:02 CC:And - -

138:05:03 Roosa:Looks like you have a good lockup here.

138:05:05 CC:Yes, It's working fine. And we?re standing by for your magazine percentage and also your P52.

138:05:14 Roosa:Okay. The magazine percentage is 35*

138:05:19 CC:Roger; 35.

138:05:21 Roosa:And, let me find my P52.

138:06:10 Roosa:And, the P52, if you're ready.

138:06:13 CC:Ready to copy.

138:06:17 Roosa:Okay. Minus 00.002, minus 00,166, minus 00.005; torque at 137:18:00.

138:06:37 CC:Do you want to talk about your NOUN 05 today?

138:06:44 Roosa:No, I had all zeros on this one.

138:06:48 CC:I figured as much. Okay. We copy: minus ,002, minus .166, and a minus .005; torque's at 137:18:00

138:07:06 Roosa:Roger. Hey, is Fredo still there?

138:07:13 CC:Yes, wait 1. He's talking to the "LMies" right now.

138:07:17 Roosa:No, that's all right - that's all right. I was just - you know, not only seeing Lhe LM, I saw the Sun glinting off the ALSEP, I?m sure. And I was just wondering if it was deployed out by that crater at about CL 0.8 or 85/65.

138:07:44 CC:Okay. I got a map here. Looks like it was about pretty close to CR and 63, is the ALSEP.

138:07:59 Roosa:C what?

138:08:01 CC:Charlie-Romeo and 63. It's really Charlie-Quebec 0.9 and about a 63.2.

138:08:22 Roosa:Okay.

138:08:36 CC:Where did you say you thought you saw a bright spot there?

138:08:42 Roosa:Well, now, I'm wondering if I got my direction from the LM - you can get the LM because it's by the Triplet.

138:08:52 CC:Right.

138:08:53 Roosa:And, I just looked out and saw the bright spot going toward - parked out by another crater. And I'm thinking maybe I got my directions from the LM wrong. Is ALSEP out by that crater called Neighbor on the map?

138:09:16 CC:Wait a minute; I don't have Neighbor on this particular map I'm looking at. ALSEP is kind of between Doublet and Triplet, if you can see that part of it there. And, it's toward Doublet from the LM.

138:09:34 Roosa:Yes, well that's where I called - that's where I said the first time, and it didn't fit in. You told me Charlie-Quebec 0.9*

138:09:45 CC:Wait 1, Stu, until I get the right - same map you're looking at.

138:10:11 CC:Okay. I was looking at a smaller map. It's got some more numbers in there. You're right. It's really right there by Neighbor, just east - just south of Neighbor. It's right in a line between the center crater of Triplet and Doublet.

138:10:53 Roosa:Well, now, the coordinates that I called the first time just - you know, I didn't compare the map when I was looking through the sextant, but it looked to me like the - just judging on here, the ALSEP would be about CL 0.9 and right at 65, maybe 64.9. And, see, there's a little crater. See that little crater right there at about CL 8 and maybe 64 -64.5, or something like that.

138:11:34 CC:Okay. Yes, I think that - I think that was the ALSEP --

138:11:36 Roosa:Yes, I think right there is - Yes. I can see the Sun shining off the beauty.

138:11:42 CC:Yes. That was it; that was it.

138:12:15 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk there. Maybe we ought to whip into the update - map update or the flight-plan update for the next REV. And we'11 start out with the zero-phase pad backward on page 43.

138:12:28 Roosa:And, Houston; Kitty Hawk.

138:12:31 CC:Houston, go.

138:12:36 Roosa:Okay, Ron. Where we going to do - we going to have the first zero phase and then shoot Descartes?

138:12:43 CC:That's affirm.

138:12:48 Roosa:Okay. Sounds like a good idea.

138:12:54 CC:Yes, it ought to be pretty good. And for the zero-phase backward pad, roll angle is 195.4; pitch, 344.4; yaw, 359-9- T-start, 139:41:42. You write down your switch time - is 758. And, just a note - -

138:13:41 Roosa:Okay. 195.4 -

138:13:46 CC:Just a note there, Stu. When you start the DAC and stop the DAC, give a call so we can get a time hack on it.

138:14:04 Roosa:Okay. 195.4, 344.4, 359-9, 139=41:42. Switch is 758, and I give you a mark for start and stop of the DAC on the camera.

138:14:20 CC:Okay. Mighty fine. And, at the bottom of the page there on - at 140, add a VERB 49 maneuver. VERB 49 to a roll, 028; pitch, 253; and yaw, 0. That's to the C0AS striking attitude.

138:14:53 Roosa:Okay. 140, a VERB 49 to 028, 253, and 0 degrees.

138:15:00 CC:And, as you notice, you got a little bit of roll in there; so, you ought to have fun tracking this one with a little pitch and yaw, minimum LMPulse, you know.

138:15:11 Roosa:Roger.

138:15:12 CC:Okay. On page 44, got a little deletion there. Delete the VERB 49 at the top of the page, there. Say goodbye to Isadora and Compella; delete phototarget 7, there. And, in all that place in there, put the 500-millimeter procedures. And, at 140:15, put your T-start time of 140:15=13. And, then, you can go ahead and delete the zero-phase observations forward looking - which is kind of the rest of the page, there.

138:16:20 Roosa:Roger. It looks like we?ll just delete everything else.

138:16:23 CC:Yes, that's right. And the target point for that one is, as we mentioned before, you know about one and a third of those marks down the COAS, east of the depicted COAS position there.

138:16:45 Roosa:Okay. I'll try to pick up that little Doublet there.

138:16:49 CC:Okay.

138:17:54 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk. We got about 1 minute to LOS here. A1 and Ed are completing a debriefing from their EVA. And I think they had - got about 160 pounds of stuff - 167 pounds of stuff coming back up to you.

138:18:18 Roosa:Jolly good.

138:18:20 CC:Roger.

138:18:23 Roosa:160 pounds of rocks and a probe, huh?

138:18:27 CC:Yes. You betcha.

138:19:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 30

139:06:17 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston here, if you read. You got less than 30 seconds to start your camera for zero phase.

139:15:23 CC:Kitty Hawk, this is Houston. We got too much background noise again. I can't read you.

139:15:32 Roosa:Okay. Let me see if I can pick up the HIGH GAIN.

139:15:40 CC:No. I just can't make you out. Maybe you can get me on the HIGH GAIN there.

139:15:48 Roosa:It ought to be getting better real fast.

139:15:52 CC:Hey. By golly. That's much better.

139:15:58 Roosa:Okay. And stand by just 1. I'll make a - I want to make a couple of notes here.

139:16:02 CC:Okay.

139:16:04 Roosa:And you - you've got the tape back again. I hit COMMAND RESET there so I could get - keep the tape running. I don't know when it went off during the pass.

139:16:13 CC:Okay. We copy.

139:18:20 Roosa:Okay, Ron. I'm back with you.

139:18:24 CC:Roger. Go ahead, Stu, with your frame number and whatever. I mean your percent. No, I was right the first time, frame number.

139:18:42 Roosa:Roger. Frame number 83.

139:18:46 CC:Copy 83.

139:24:39 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. OMNI Charlie.

139:34:36 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. About 30 seconds to T-start.

139:34:43 Roosa:Roger.

139:43:41 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. The HIGH GAIN angles: PITCH, minus 30; YAW, 125.

139:43:57 Roosa:Okay.

139:46:37 Roosa:Houston, Kitty Hawk.

139:46:39 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk. Go - a little background noise, but go ahead. You're good shape now. Background noise is from the LM.

139:46:55 Roosa:How about that? Okay. The tracking went pretty good. It's getting at - this Sun angle at the - I didn't pick up at Doublet. However, I knew where it should be, and I got another little one in that area. So I think the track is pretty close to the - the area you wanted. The track - the tracking went all right. However, in the heat of the battle there, I did not get the tape recorder going, so we didn't get the HIGH BIT RATE on that track. And the frame number is 126.

139:47:42 CC:Okay. We copy that, Stu. And don't leave the dark slide out of that magazine when you take it off. Okay? It's a pretty LMPortant magazine.

139:47:55 Roosa:Okay.

139:53:50 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston, request P00 and ACCEPT there, and we'll ship you a state vector or two.

139:53:52 Roosa:Roger. You have it, P00 and ACCEPT.

139:53:54 CC:Okay. And also, Stu, I?ve got your consumables update and your P27 pad here, if you're ready to copy. Start with consumables first .

139:54:09 Roosa:Okay. I?m ready. Go ahead.

139:54:11 CC:Okay. Consumables GET 140:40; total 60 percent. Okay, now I'll read the quads off the problem Charlie. 61, 60, 60, 60; H ; 52, 52; 0o: 77, 76, 25. 2

139:54:50 Roosa:Okay. 140:40; 60 - 61, 60, 60, 60; 52, 52; 77, 76, 25.

139:55:04 CC:Okay, that's correct. Whip over to page 26 there, and I'll give your P27 for the CSM.

139:55:15 Roosa:Okay.

139:55:18 CC:Okay. VERB 71; GET, 142:25:00; Index 21: 01, 501, 00, 002, 77, 730, 75, 126; Index 6 is 77, 472, 41, 104, 77, 633, 56, 122; Index 12: 60, 206, 77, 562, 00, 766, 25, 263, 04, 076; Index 17: 27, 204, 06, 071, 10, 56O. Read back.

139:56:54 Roosa:Okay. Verb 71; 142:25:00; 21: 01, 501, 00, 002, 77, 730, 75, 126; 77, 472, 41, 104, 77, 633, 56, 122; 60, 206, 77, 562, 00, 766, 25, 263, 04, 076; 27, 204, 06, 071, 10, 560.

139:57:43 CC:Okay. Beautiful readback there, Stu.

139:57:49 Roosa:Okay.

139:59:07 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We've got a few more things to go on the uplink there. Can you still give us P00 and ACCEPT?

139:59:17 Roosa:Roger. You've still got it.

140:02:13 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Computer is yours.

140:02:20 Roosa:Okay. Thank you.

140:04:01 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. I've got your ascent pads for you.

140:04:17 Roosa:Okay. Go ahead.

140:04:19 CC:Okay. Direct ascent rendezvous pad: GETI of lift-off, 142:25:42.00; NOUN 37; 143:10:54.00. And the T. for one REV late: lift-off is ig 142:24:04. Okay. Your coelliptic rendezvous -Oh, wait a minute. I'm sorry. CSM weight: 34417. Coelliptic rendezvous pad: lift-off T is 142:28:12.50; CSI, 143:26:36.60; NOUN 37; 145:11:30.00. And ready for readback.

140:05:39 Roosa:Okay. Copy. Direct ascent - oh, before I start, give me that - that for one - one REV late. What - what T. do you have there? ig

140:05:51 CC:Okay. That's just set the lift-off for one REV late. Wait a minute. Hold it. That's the wrong number. For some reason, it doesn't match up here.

140:06:05 Roosa:That's what I was thinking.

140:06:07 CC:Yes. You're right. Okay, Copied it down wrong. Sorry. Okay, T^ for one REV late is 144:24:04.

140:06:51 Roosa:Okay. Direct ascent: 142:25:42.00; 143:10:54.00; lift-off one REV late: 144 plus 24 plus 04. CSM weight, 34417. Coelliptic: 142:28:12.50; 143:26:36.60; 145:11:30.00.

140:07:06 CC:Okay. Good readback, Kitty Hawk. And we probably won't have MSFN relay the next time you come around here. As a matter of fact, I Just got the word, we will not have any MSFN relay when you come around the next time.

140:07:27 Roosa:Okay.

140:13:19 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We have your torquing angles.

140:13:27 Roosa:Okay. Torqued at 140:53:20.

140:13:32 CC:Roger. 53 at 20.

140:15:46 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. About 1 minute to LOS there. All systems are GO, and we'll see you coming around the other side.

140:15:57 Roosa:Kitty Hawk, Roger.

140:41:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 31

141:04:59 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Are you having an SOS sandwich there for lunch?

141:05:06 Roosa:Not quite, but I sure wish it was.

141:05:09 CC:(Laughter) Okay. When you get a chance there, Stu, you can go ahead and terminate BAT A charge.

141:05:21 Roosa:Okay. I'll do it right now.

141:05:24 CC:Okay. And while you're floating over there, you might be advised that the TPI DELTA-V will probably be - more than likely be - around 100 feet a second instead of about 90 or so, you know?

141:05:41 Roosa:Okay.

141:05:47 CC:And your ascent pads are good the way they are.

141:05:55 Roosa:Okay.

141:05:56 CC:Antares is pressing on in good shape there. They're getting set for the liftoff, about 39 minutes yet. And, as you might notice here, we're on separate air-to-ground loops. So I'll be talking to you through this pass, and I'll relay all information on up to you. When you go to the P20 attitude, the OMNI antennas just make all kinds of noise racket down here, so I may not be able to hear you, but I think you've been hearing me most of the time. So I'll Just go ahead and relay, probably in the blind, most of the time line.

141:06:37 Roosa:All right.

141:10:55 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

141:10:59 Roosa:Go ahead.

141:11:01 CC:Okay, Stu, we're going to bring the probe back with us, or you guys are, anyhow. And for TEI, just go ahead and stow it underneath the right-hand couch - you know, with the straps like we normally do, there, for temporary storage. And then, on the way - -

141:11:23 Roosa:Okay.

141:11:24 CC:- - back, we?ll give you some permanent stowage instructions, during transearth coast. Also, your VHF acquisition time - that's when you come over the horizon for the VHF there - will be 142:20:18.

141:11:55 Roosa:Okay, 142:20:18; and, Ron, I'm going to be off the comm here, probably about 4 or 5 minutes.

141:12:03 CC:Okay; understand.

141:15:45 Roosa:Okay, Ron; I'm back on.

141:15:48 CC:Okay; mighty fine, Stu.

141:22:40 CC:Okay, Stu. It looks like you're getting about ready to maneuver, there. Just want to let you know the LM's in good shape. About the only thing that's even pending is the - their steerable antenna, and it looks like it may not be tracking correctly on the thing. So they may be using their OMNI antennas.

141:23:04 Roosa:Okay.

141:23:24 Roosa:Okay, thank you, Ron. We'll see you on OMNI Delta, here.

141:23:29 CC:Okay. You may see me; I won't see you. We?ll hope, maybe it'll work. Hey, by the way, that's a beautiful job whipping around out there - we got some real good selenodetic updates, and I'm sure we got a bunch of good pictures, by golly.

141:23:48 Roosa:Thank you.

141:29:33 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. The APS is pressurized. Antares has a GO for lift-off; direct rendezvous on this pass.

141:29:45 Roosa:Roger. Thank you, Ron.

141:29:50 CC:Roger.

141:54:54 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Are you copying the LM VHF?

141:55:20 Roosa:That's affirmative, Ron. I am reading them loud and clear.

141:55:22 CC:Okay. Mighty fine. And, Kitty Hawk; Houston. There will be a tweak burn.

141:55:37 Roosa:Understand. There will be a tweak.

141:55:39 CC:Affirmative.

141:58:36 CC:Okay, Kitty Hawk; Houston. You're GO for a direct rendezvous.

142:00:19 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston; we're still checking your vector. You're not ...

142:00:27 Roosa:Okay, I was just going to start on that when I got a GO on it. Pfy- VHF won't stay locked on, Ron. It'll just flash me a RANGE and then drop right back off again. Anybody got any good ideas?

142:00:43 CC:Okay, let me check the - You say your VHF won't stay locked on. It locks on and then comes right back out again. Is that correct?

142:00:53 Roosa:That's affirmative. It just flashes me a RANGE and then drops right back to zero.

142:00:59 CC:Okay.

142:01:54 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. LM update - or LM state vector update is not required. You're GO the way it is. And any better luck on the VHF?

142:02:09 Roosa:Okay. No, it's still the same.

142:02:25 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. I just can't read you.

142:02:54 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Transmitting kind of in the blind here, because I can't read you; but go ahead and try to take the VHF monitor, and see if you get a tracking light or not.

142:03:07 Roosa:That's affirmative. I do.

142:03:31 CC:And, Kitty Hawk; you want to be sure and make sure that the Antares remains quiet on the VHF there while we're trying to lock up on the thing.

142:05:20 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. It looks like the VHF may have - may have locked up after your NOUN 49 value you had on it.

142:05:34 Roosa:Yes. It's going okay.

142:05:40 CC:Okay.

142:10:07 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Your vehicle's in good shape. You've got about 5 minutes to LOS here. And, Stu, you're accepting all the optics monitor in good shape. You probably better go ahead and accept the VHF monitor, also.

142:11:21 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston.

142:11:27 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

142:11:30 CC:Okay. Stu, it looks like we're getting some bad VHF spots in there. Just reinitialize the W-matrix and go sextant only - sextant only. So, mark it.

142:11:44 Roosa:Okay. You say reinitialize? I've already accepted one.

142:12:05 CC:Kitty Hawk, don't worry about the W-matrix on the ground. Just press on. Accept sextant marks only.

142:12:16 Roosa:It's too late. I?ve already Initialized it.

142:12:29 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Request OMNI Bravo.

142:13:41 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. LM PPI ground solution. DELTA-V: X, plus 63 feet per second; Y, plus 1; Z, plus 67. I say again. LM PPI, DELTA-V: X, plus 63.0 ; Y, plus 1.0; Z, plus 67.0. Ant ares , over.

142:14:10 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Looks like the best ground solution we have down there for the LM is about as written. It's plus 63.0, plus 1.0, and plus 67.O.

142:14:46 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. About 30 seconds; you're looking good. We'll see you on the other side.

142:39:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 32

143:03:38 Roosa:Stand by 1.

143:04:11 Roosa:Houston, Kitty Hawk.

143:04:13 CC:Go ahead, Kitty Hawk.

143:04:20 Roosa:Okay. On the VHF - I mean a sextant only solution, I had a minus 67.4, plus 0.5, minus 69.2. I did get the ranging to work when our comm got better after TPI. And everything's worked out good.

143:04:41 CC:Understand; you did get the VHF ranging going after TPI?

143:04:47 Roosa:That's affirmat ive.

143:04:51 CC:Sounds good.

143:05:39 Roosa:Well, Bruce. I was going to send you some TV, I had it on STANDBY and I went to TRANSMIT and I could see the surface pretty good and all of a sudden it quit.

143:06:02 CC:Stand by on that, Stu. We can probably get it working again.

143:06:06 Roosa:How are you configured down there? Okay.

143:06:18 CC:Stu, this is Houston. I think that's a ground-commanded configuration problem. And as soon as we're through dumping the backside tape, we'll give it back to you.

143:06:32 Roosa:Okay. What are you doing way down there, oh Fearless One?

143:08:19 Roosa:... I show you at 1.52 or something like that.

143:08:54 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We'd like you to load the nominal LM weight and the DAP please, 5700.

143:09:06 Roosa:Okay.

143:09:20 Roosa:I got a spot - -

143:09:49 Mitchell-LM:The line of sight through the COAS looks real good.

143:10:17 CC:Okay Stu, we're getting a great TV signal now.

143:10:23 Roosa:Okay. I'll try a little zoom. I don?t know if you can pick him up yet or not.

143:10:33 CC:Okay, can you tell us roughly where he is in the monitor and grid coordinates?

143:11:04 Roosa:He's right on the top of B and C. On the line in between them it looks like, Bruce.

143:11:12 CC:Roger. Is that B-2 and -3?

143:11:18 Roosa:Well, let me see. I can't see that far over to the monitor. Let me take another look.

143:11:23 CC:Oh, don't worry about it.

143:11:24 Roosa:I'll look out the window here first.

143:11:37 CC:Okay. We've got it now.

143:11:52 CC:Roger, Stu. We've got him at the left-hand edge of our picture about one-third of the way down from the top. Growing bigger every second.

143:12:04 Roosa:Okay. Roger.

143:14:02 Roosa:Looking mighty pretty. No sweat.

143:14:36 Roosa:Okay, I believe I'll just have a few pictures of you here.

143:15:20 Roosa:You've lost a little weight since the last time I saw you.

143:16:04 Roosa:Okay.

143:16:57 Shepard-LM:Houston, Antares is stationkeeping at about 100 feet. Closing in a little more for the pictures of the service module and command module.

143:17:04 Roosa:Roger, Al. We've got you on television, and It's looking beautiful.

143:17:19 Roosa:Okay, anytime you?re ready Al, you -

143:17:24 Shepard-LM:Okay, we've got you Stu. Go ahead and turn it around, we'll photograph you.

143:17:27 CC:Say, Stu - -

143:17:28 Roosa:Okay. I'm going to turn the TV oir here.

143:17:29 CC:- - Stu, looking at the ascent stage of the LM, it looks like there's something hanging loose from the bottom of it. A piece of wire or insulation or anything. Any comment on that?

143:17:43 Roosa:Yes, I saw that. I was going to wait until we got in a little closer. Probably part of the separation plane, I'm sure.

143:17:49 CC:Yes, we - we concur on that.

143:17:50 Roosa:Let me turn the TV out here before I blast it into the Sun on this pitcharound, Bruce.

143:17:54 CC:Roger.

143:18:05 CC:And, Stu, we'd like to confirm that you got the LM weight of 5T00 pounds loaded in the DAP prior to the docking.

143:18:15 Roosa:Okay.

143:18:19 Shepard-LM:Okay, I see a smooth loop there.

143:18:21 Roosa:That's no problem, Bruce. Because I dock and I'll go FREE, and then I'll get all that squared away, but I'll load it in.

143:18:30 CC:Roger. Out.

143:18:31 Roosa:Okay. Stand by 1 here. Okay, I shall do a loop, leader.

143:18:41 Shepard-LM:Okay, make it smooth.

143:18:46 Roosa:And around we go.

143:18:48 Shepard-LM:Show us a little style. Oh, you look good.

143:18:57 Roosa.:There I was at 240,000 coming over the top.

143:19:03 Mitchell-LM:That's our home away from home.

143:19:16 CC:Would you believe 360,000?

143:19:23 Mitchell-LM:Yes.

143:19:31 Shepard-LM:Okay, Houston. Kitty Hawk is doing an extremely smooth loop. We're sitting at 70 feet watching him go around. He looks very clean. Engine ... looks very clean - - ...

143:21:56 Shepard-LM:Oh, you look clean. Nice and clean, Stu.

143:22:09 Mitchell-LM:Want to colo in a little closer? It'll save you some gas.

143:22:24 CC:Ed, this is Houston. When you get a chance, on panel 16, would you check the ASA - AEA circuit breakers. We've lost data from the AEA only. Over.

143:22:40 Mitchell-LM:They're both in.

143:22:41 CC:Thank you.

143:22:44 Shepard-LM:That close enough?

143:22:48 Roosa:Yes, that ought to do it.

143:23:21 Roosa:Okay, I've got the stationkeeping. Houston, what that is trailing is a little bit of that foil on the bottom part of that tank area, there.

143:23:42 CC:Thank you, Stu.

143:23:45 Roosa:Looks like during separation, the foil - that insulation got - got ripped. The other side is down tight. And the side you're looking at there is ripped out pretty badly.

143:23:58 CC:Roger. Thank you, Stu. And we got a real good TV picture.

143:25:15 Roosa:Okay.

143:25:40 CC:Aiitares, this is Houston. Request LO BIT RATE, APT1 OMNI. Over.

143:25:45 Roosa:You want L0 BIT RATE, AFT OMNI? Let's see, I wouldn't come in much closer than that, Al. Aren't you going to dp your roll? Okay. Yes.

143:26:06 Shepard-LM:Okay, I'm starting my roll.

143:26:15 Mitchell-LM:Houston, Antares. How do you read?

143:27:01 Roosa:Okay, why don't you Just stop it there. I need to translate down and right, here. Okay.

143:27:08 CC:And, Kitty Hawk, we show you - -

143:27:10 Mitchell-LM:Houston, Antares. Over.

143:27:15 CC:- - P47 for the docking. Go ahead, Antares.

143:27:20 Roosa:Roger.

143:27:21 Mitchell-LM:Roger. You're on the OMNIs and be advised I seem to have lost AGSs, although I have no warning.

143:27:27 CC:Roger, Ed. We copy.

143:27:30 Roosa:Okay, Houston. I have a - Houston, I have the LOGIC ON and would like a GO for PYR0 ARM.

143:27:46 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston, You're GO for PYRO ARM.

143:27:53 Roosa:Okay. They're coming on.

143:28:13 CC:Antares, this is Houston. We'd like to get the steerable up. PITCH, 170; YAW, plus 55; HIGH BIT RATE and request that you and Kitty Hawk do not make contact until we establish good telemetry. Over.

143:28:33 Mitchell-LM:Roger; Ed. Steerable up. Say again ... just a second.

143:28:37 CC:Okay. PITCH, 170; YAW, plus 55, Ed. Over.

143:29:00 Roosa:Say again.

143:29:04 Mitchell-LM:Houston, we're locked up. How do you read?

143:29:06 CC:Roger. Loud and clear, Ed, and we got HIGH BIT RATE.

143:29:12 Mitchell-LM:Okay.

143:29:38 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. You're GO for the docking.

143:29:46 Mitchell-LM:Roger. We got you.

143:29:52 Roosa:Yes. How about that?

143:31:53 Roosa:Say again.

143:32:33 Roosa:Okay, we capture.

143:32:39 CC:Beautiful. Normal docking.

143:32:54 Roosa:Okay. And we got hard dock.

143:32:56 CC:Beautiful. There's a big sigh of relief being breathed around here.

143:33:07 Shepard:All over the world, there is.

143:33:08 Roosa:You ought to try it from up here.

143:33:11 CC:This world and out of this world, too.

143:33:28 Roosa:Let me - let me clean up over here and I'll be -

143:33:42 CC:Antares, Houston. When you have a moment, go to P00 and DATA for us, and we've got an uplink for you. Good.

143:33:58 Shepard:Okay. You have it, Houston.

143:34:01 CC:Thank you.

143:34:07 Mitchell:Houston, are you going to give me the LM - command module weight?

143:34:15 CC:Ed, this is Houston. Understand you want the command module weight now?

143:34:24 Mitchell:Whatever you have; I'm out, ready to copy.

143:34:26 CC:Okay. CSM is 34727 and the LM is 5103. Over.

143:34:44 Mitchell:Understand. 5103, 34727.

143:34:49 CC:That's correct, Ed.

143:35:04 CC:And, Kitty Hawk; Houston. When you get through with what you're doing there, Stu, I do have SEP pad for you and a - an updated DAP load, but there's no rush on either one.

143:35:17 Roosa:Okay. I'll take the DAP load now. That's what I'm working on.

143:35:20 CC:Roger. CSM is 34727.

143:35:36 Roosa:Okay. 34727, thank you.

143:35:38 CC:LM, 5103.

143:35:50 Roosa:Okay, and 05103.

143:35:54 CC:Roger. Out.

143:36:02 CC:Antares , Houston. I have a LM LMPact P30 pad for you when you're free.

143:36:13 Mitchell:Roger. Give me 5 seconds.

143:36:34 Roosa:Well, I guess we'd better get to cracking, troops. I've got to put your 160 pounds of rocks some place.

143:36:40 Shepard:Yes, Can't do it until we get the tunnel open.

143:36:44 Roosa:Roger. I'll be working on that in just a second here. I'll start equalizing.

143:37:30 Roosa:Okay, Antares. I'm going to be off the - off the air for about 3 minutes here.

143:37:40 Mitchell:Okay, Stu.

143:37:56 Mitchell:All right, Bruce, GO on your P30 pad.

143:38:01 CC:Say again, Ed.

143:38:06 Mitchell:I?m ready to copy P30 pad.

143:38:08 CC:Okay. P30 purpose, good-bye LM. T. 147:54:18.90; NOUN 81, minus 0182.0, plus 0039.0, plus all balls; H and H are NA; DELTA-VD 0186.1; 1:15; 012, 176; A r K minus 0181.9, plus 0039-0, minus 0006.0. Read back. Over.

143:39:06 Mitchell:I've got your LMPact P30 pad. 147:54:18.90; minus 0182.0, plus 0039-0, plus all zeros; H^, Hp, NA; 0186.1; 1:15; 012, 176; minus 0181.9, plus 0039.0, minus 0006.0. End of pad.

143:39:42 CC:Roger. And you've already got the LM weight.

143:39:49 Mitchell:That's firm.

143:39:52 CC:Okay, Ed. If you would, we'd like a few words from you on the subject of the AGS. We've lost the AGS downlink telemetry and sort of at a loss as to what its current status is. Could you spare a little time for that?

143:40:11 . Mitchell:Roger. It performed beautifully up until the time you asked me to check circuit breakers. I looked, and the circuit breakers are okay. I tried to look at it from a backup breaking gate about that time, and found I could not access it. Furthermore, the ball, the AGS ball, is still at 150 degrees pitch, zero yaw, zero roll and - has been for some time. And I had no warnings. All the circuit breakers were in, but I cannot access it to give a self test.

143:40:49 CC:When was the last time you tried to access it, Ed?

143:40:57 CC:Successfully?

143:40:59 Mitchell:Well, just now at - oh - about - oh, shortly before we hit the breaking gate.

143:41:08 CC:Roger.

143:41:24 CC:Ed, this is Houston. We'd like you to - on panel 16, cycle the ASA and AE circuit breaker -AEA circuit breaker, if you would, please?

143:41:45 Mitchell:Okay. They're cycled. In further answer to that last question, Bruce. It was some - somewhere around AOS, but I don't remember exactly when.

143:41:55 CC:Roger, Ed. That's close enough.

143:41:59 Mitchell:Good enough. I abandoned the AGS and started setting up the cameras for the docking about that point.

143:42:05 CC:Okay, Ed. And, if you didn't see any change, we'd like you to take the AGS operate switch - the AGS STATUS switch and cycle it from OPERATE to STANDBY and back to OPERATE, and if that doesn't do any good, on panel 11, we'd like to close the Commander's AEA circuit breaker. Over.

143:42:34 Mitchell:Okay. That hasn't been any good. We'll try the other one.

143:42:41 Roosa:Okay. I'm back now.

143:43:01 Mitchell:That doesn't seem to help either, Bruce.

143:43:05 CC:Okay. Which one was that?

143:43:11 Mitchell:Any of them. I - I put in the Commander's circuit breaker and still has not gotten anywhere with it.

143:43:16 CC:Okay. Let's skip the AGS and leave it in its present situation and I've got a few items I'd like to read off for return - over and above the nominal return items.

143:43:47 CC:Ed, this is Houston. I'd like to read you up some extra return items, if you've got a piece of paper around.

143:43:58 Mitchell:Okay, I'm ready to copy.

143:43:59 CC:Okay, item number 1, the 100-foot tether. Over.

143:44:11 Mitchell:Okay, we got that one.

143:44:13 CC:Number 2, the LEC waste/tether combination. Over.

143:44:24 Mitchell:Okay.

143:44:26 CC:Number 3, 30-foot tiedown webbing. Over.

143:44:43 Mitchell:Okay.

143:44:46 CC:Item number 4 - -

143:44:47 Roosa:Okay, I'm cracking the hatch now.

143:44:48 CC:- - We would like to bring back the Commander's Hasselblad and recommend that that go in the ISA. If you want to bring back the LMP Hasselblad, also, that could go in B-l, but we need .he Commander's Hasselblad. Over.

143:45:06 Mitchell:(Laughter) We thought about bringing them both back, but since you said not to, we left one on the surface. But you'll have the CDR's.

143:45:14 CC:Roger, we copy. Item number 5, we want both of the LMP's EVA gloves. Over.

143:45:26 Mitchell:Okay, they?re aboard.

143:45:30 CC:And, of course, we're going to bring back the docking probe. Now, on stowage: the first three items, the tethers and the webbing, can go in the temporary stowage bags in the command module. The Hasselblad in the ISA, which is normal, and your gloves can go in the PGA bag, and the probe up underneath the right-hand couch in the temporary stowage location.

143:45:59 Mitchell:Okay, we've already stowed most of this stuff, Bruce. The tether - the 100-foot tether is already in the ISA; the LEC waste tethers can go in the TSB and so can the 30-foot tiedown webbing. The Commander's Hasselblad we can put in the ISA; the EVA gloves are already in the ISA.

143:46:26 CC:Okay, stand by, please.

143:47:25 CC:Ed, this is Houston. Over.

143:47:31 Mitchell:Go ahead.

143:47:33 CC:We'd like to get the - the tethers, especially the 100-foot tether, out of the ISA, because you?re going to be bagging the ISA in a - a contamination bag, and we plan on using the 100-foot tether, the LEC waste tether, and the 30 feet of tiedown for securing the docking probe for reentry; so we'd like - if you can do it without LMPact, we'd like you to get that stuff out before you put the ISA in the contamination bag. All the other stowage is okay. Over.

143:48:05 Mitchell:Okay, we'll see what we can do.

143:48:07 CC:Roger.

143:48:36 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Are you back on the line? Over.

143:48:42 Roosa:That's affirmative.

143:48:43 CC:Okay. I don't want to interrupt, but whenever you're free, I've got your SEP pad.

143:48:55 Roosa:Okay, why don't I take it now? I'm waiting for a hatch check here.

143:49:01 CC:Okay, let me know when you?re ready.

143:49:06 Roosa:Well, let her rip.

143:49:08 CC:Okay. CSM SEP, RCS, T t 146:30:00.0; NOUN 81, minus 0001.0; Y and Z are all zips; roll, 301, 355, 348; the rest of the pad is NA; remarks, LM-jettison time, 146:25:00; and the roll, pitch, and yaw for LM jettison are the same as for SEP. Over.

143:50:04 Roosa:Okay. SEP pad, 146:30:00.00; DELTA-VY, minus 1.0, all zips, all zips; 301, 355, 348; jettison, 146:25:00.00; 301, 355, and 348.

143:50:32 CC:Roger.

143:50:44 Mitchell:Okay, Bruce. I'm ready to copy any pads you have for me.

143:50:50 CC:Ed, this is Houston. I believe we're up to date already on you.

143:50:59 Mitchell:Okay. I misunderstood. I thought you had a call for me a minute ago.

143:51:36 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. We'd like to get P00 and ACCEPT, if that's convenient with you, and confirm all the ROTATIONAL HAND CONTROL POWER DIRECT switches, OFF, please.

143:51:55 Roosa:Okay. You've got P00 and ACCEPT and DIRECT, OFF.

143:51:59 CC:Roger. Out.

143:52:15 Mitchell:Stu, are the pressures equal in the tunnel yet?

143:52:19 Roosa:That's affirmative. I'm about to drop the hatch.

143:52:53 Roosa:And, Ed, did you verify, or A1, the FORWARD DUMP VALVE to AUTO?

143:52:59 Mitchell:That's verify, Stu.

143:53:00 Roosa:Okay.

143:53:11 Roosa:How dusty was it down there?

143:53:15 Mitchell:We don't have a lot of dust in here, but our suits are sure filthy.

143:53:19 Roosa:Okay.

143:56:39 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Computer is yours.

143:56:46 Roosa:Okay.

143:57:57 CC:Kitty Hawk, Houston. Were you calling?

143:58:05 Roosa:That's negative, Bruce.

143:58:07 CC:Roger. Out.

144:01:56 Mitchell:Okay, Bruce.

144:09:51 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston.

144:09:58 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

144:10:00 CC:Apollo 14, Houston. With 3 minutes and 45 seconds to LOS, both vehicles are GO on all systems. We'll see you on the other side. Over.

145:06:16 CC:Roger, 14. I'm reading you down in the mud, here; but I can understand what you're saying. How are you progressing on the closeout?

145:06:29 Roosa:You're coming in 5 square here; so, if you've got anything to say, we might can pick it up. And we're pressing along nicely.

145:06:37 . CC:Roger. For your information, although I don't want to make this a formal flight-plan update at this time, after TEI, there will be no lunar topo, that is, no Hycon-camera photos. Do plan on taking the - Hasselblad shots, and the visual assessment of targets 1 and 2. But right after your DAP load at 150 hours plus 32 minutes, you can plan on initiating PTC and then initiating sleep. Over.

145:07:14 Shepard:I don't believe that will be a hard one to fill.

145:07:17 CC:I didn't figure you'd fight us on it.

145:10:22 Mitchell:Houston, 14.

145:10:25 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. Go ahead.

145:10:32 Mitchell:Okay, Bruce. What are we going to do about this closeout of the LM? Just ignore the AGS, huh? And stay with the PGNS? And everything else the same?

145:10:41 CC:Stand by, Ed.

145:11:35 CC:Antares, Ed; this is Houston. On the configuration, you may just leave the AGS in its current configuration. No need to target it or even fool around with it. And we'll be talking to you as you progress through the closeout. This does not constitute a GO for closeout. Over.

145:12:01 Mitchell:Roger; Roger. Understand.

145:13:53 CC:Antares, this is Houston. Over.

145:14:01 Mitchell:Go ahead, Houston.

145:14:03 CC:Antares, this is Houston. We'd like you to go through the DAP-loading procedure at the top of page 15 in your LM Time Line Book. We don't show the 12021 loaded in the DAP. Over.

145:14:23 Mitchell:That's affirm, Houston. I haven't - I deliberately held off on that one.

145:14:29 CC:Roger. We're showing some RCS thruster firings that maybe aren't necessary.

145:14:39 Mitchell:Okay, loading it now.

145:20:06 Mitchell:Houston, 14.

145:20:10 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. Go ahead.

145:20:16 Mitchell:Roger, Bruce. I'm at the - ready for IVT to the command module.

145:20:24 CC:Okay. Stand by, and I'll try and get you a GO.

145:20:34 Mitchell:Oh, Bruce. The thing we're short on is getting the comm up here the way you want it. I don't -you haven't given me any steerable angles to set on.

145:20:49 CC:Okay, Ed; you can go ahead and configure the comm at this time. The nominal values in the flight plan. PITCH, minus 40; YAW, plus 49, are valid. Over.

145:21:05 Mitchell:Okay, I'll use those.

145:21:59 Mitchell:Houston, your steerable is beeped up, and on SLEW,

145:22:05 CC:Roger, Ed; the comm looks good to us and now we need RBTs 5 and 6 on both NORMAL and BACKUP FEED, over.

145:22:18 Mitchell:Okay. That's what I was waiting for. Here we go.

145:23:58 CC:Antares, this is Houston. You're GO for final closeout; good bye. Over.

145:24:06 Mitchell:Okay, so long; see you on the other side.

145:24:09 CC:Roger; out.

145:28:51 Roosa:Houston, 14.

145:28:54 CC:14, this is Houston. Over.

145:29:01 Roosa:Okay, I'm bringing on the LOGIC switches.

145:29:03 CC:Roger; stand by for PYR0 ARM.

145:29:40 Roosa:Okay, Bruce. LOGIC is ON.

145:29:44 CC:Roger, Stu; stand by.

145:30:07 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. You are GO for PYR0 ARM, over.

145:30:15 Roosa:Okay, thank you.

145:38:25 Roosa:Houston, 14. I still have GO for jettison on time, 146 plus 25?

145:38:30 CC:Stand by, Stu.

145:38:50 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. You are GO for a LM jettison on time. The only thing we see is P47, when you get down to it in the time line just before JETT. Over.

145:39:05 Roosa:Okay. I'll get my pyros - armed In a ...

145:39:10 CC:Say again about the pyros armed.

145:39:13 Roosa:Oh, I was just saying I was only missing one thing. I said I got to get my pyros armed, too.

145:39:20 CC:Roger. We gave you a GO for - -

145:39:21 Roosa:I'm on the last two things on the checklist.

145:39:24 CC:- - the pyro arm a while ago.

145:39:27 CC:Roger. We don't mean to be backseat driving.

145:39:30 Roosa:That's all right.

145:42:39 Mitchell:Houston, 14.

145:42:48 Mitchell:Houston, 14.

145:42:49 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. Go ahead.

145:42:55 Mitchell:Roger. Can you verify you can get into the computer; or have you verified it?

145:42:59 CC:Roger. The computer in the LM? Over.

145:43:05 Mitchell:That's affirm.

145:43:08 CC:Roger, we have verified it.

145:43:12 Mitchell:Roger. Thank you..

145:45:05 Roosa:Hey, it worked that time.

145:45:11 CC:Roger, 14.

145:45:16 Mitchell:And we bid sayonara to Antares.

145:45:20 CC:Roger, 14.

145:52:16 Roosa:Okay, Houston, we're through with the LM SEP burn there, and we?re maneuvering to the P52 ATT.

145:52:26 CC:Roger, we copy; through with the SEP burn and maneuvering.

146:04:54 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. We have approximately 10 minutes to LOS. After you arrive at your P52 attitude, we'll be ready to send you up a - a desired orientation uplink, and have you noticed any dust floating around?

146:05:21 CC:Apollo 14, Apollo 14; this is Houston.

146:05:23 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston. Do you read 14?

146:05:27 CC:Roger, 14.

146:05:35 CC:14, this is Houston. Six minutes and 30 seconds to LOS. How do you read? Over.

146:05:46 Roosa:You're completely unreadable, Houston. Everytime you talk, we drop the signal.

146:05:50 CC:Roger. Stu, you're coming in pretty well now. We'd like to have you acquire us on the HIGH GAIN.

146:06:03 Roosa:Houston, if you're asking for P00 and ACCEPT, you have it.

146:06:07 CC:Thank you. We also need the HIGH GAIN.

146:06:26 CC:Apollo 14, Houston. How do you read?

146:06:36 Roosa:Houston, everytime you transmit, our signal strength goes down, just right in synchronization with your words.

146:06:48 CC:Roger, Out.

146:07:11 Roosa:Houston, do you read 14?

146:07:27 Roosa:Houston, if you're wanting P00 and ACCEPT, you have it.

146:08:00 Roosa:Houston, how do you read 14?

146:11:39 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. Uplink complete. It's your computer. At 147 plus 10 plus 00, we'd like you to maneuver to roll, 026; pitch, 091; yaw, 000, for communications. HIGH GAIN will be PITCH, minus 10; YAW, plus 183. I repeat roll, 026; pitch, 091; yaw, 000. HIGH GAIN: PITCH, minus 10; YAW, plus 183; and the time for that is 147 plus 10. The normal time for the LTC photo pad maneuver, LOS, Over.

146:12:29 Roosa:Roger. Verify the roll, 026.

146:12:34 CC:Verified.

146:35:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 34

146:58:48 CC:Apollo 14, Houston. Over.

146:58:52 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston; 14.

146:58:56 CC:Roger. You're loud and clear, Stu.

146:59:03 Roosa:Likewise, Gordon.

146:59:06 CC:Okay. I've got some pads here, the TEI-34 and 35 pads.

146:59:16 Roosa:Well, we're mighty interested in the first one, anyway.

146:59:20 CC:Okay. Let me know when you're ready to write.

146:59:33 Roosa:I have pen in hand, awaiting your message.

147:05:07 CC:Okay, Stu. The readback is correct. I have some more information for this upcoming photographs with the 500-millimeter of the 13 S-IVB LMPact crater. Over.

147:05:24 Roosa:Okay.

147:05:25 CC:Okay. Give us P00 and ACCEPT. We'll give you a state vector and target load while we're getting this.

147:05:37 Roosa:Do you have it?

147:05:39 CC:Okay. Information on the photo pass. At 148:15, maneuver to roll, 026; pitch, 104; yaw, 000. We. suggest you use magazine Papa, the same 500-millimeter COAS procedures as before. T-start is 148:23:03. For locating visually the target, we suggest you use the zero-phase landmark map 7 and 8. To refresh your memory, the LMPact crater is on the northeastern rim of Lansberg B located on a line from Lansberg B to Lansberg. So, these procedures - We want you to pitch at T-start plus 1 minute and ignore the ORDEAL. Do not use the ORDEAL numbers be - This is because of a misaline-ment due to the TEI REFSMMAT. The pitch should work out to be a pure pilot pitch. Over.

147:07:31 Roosa:Okay. At 148:15, maneuver to 026, 104, 000. Use magazine P, the same 500-millimeter procedures. T-START at 148:23:03. Northeast rim of Lansberg B. I know the general area. I don?t know how good an area this type of photography covers, though.

147:08:06 CC:I can - I think the field of view is probably noticed on your orbital maps there, if you want to look it up. I - I think I looked the one time. The 500-millimeter should just about catch all of Lansberg B, and - -

147:08:26 Roosa:Yes. I - I thought it - Of course, I sort of got the LMPression today, Gordon, that - that it might have been narrower than that, but that's fine. I - I know the general area to photo.

147:08:49 Roosa:And I guess you want me to do that after 1 minute, pitch to 328, and quit, huh?

147:09:06 CC:The answer to that is affirmative. I have an up - -

147:09:15 Roosa:And as soon as we finish that, we do the VERB 49. As soon as we finish that, then, we go right into a VERB 49 maneuver to the pad burn attitude, right?

147:09:25 CC:That's affirmative, Stu. I also have a map update for REV 35.

147:09:28 Roosa:Go ahead.

147:09:33 CC:Okay. It's your computer, now. We're through with the uplink., And LOS time is 148:50:34; 180 time: 149:15:29; AOS with TEI: 149:26:49; AOS without TEI: 149:36:45. Over.

147:10:23 Roosa:Okay. I think the only one there that - give me the - I don't need the 180; but I got with TEI; AOS will be 149:26:49; without, 149:36:45. And give me LOS, again.

147:10:38 CC:Okay. LOS, 148:50:35. You copied the AOSs okay.

147:11:24 CC:14, Houston. For your information, there's about 3 minutes to the - 2 minutes and 50 seconds to the LM ignition.

147:11:33 Roosa:Okay.

147:11:50 CC:Stu, this is Houston.

147:11:55 Roosa:Go ahead.

147:11:59 CC:Stand by 1.

147:12:09 CC:Okay, Stu. We took a look at your geometry when you're in this attitude prior to starting the COAS maneuver. It turns out that you're probably going to be able to see, through the optics, Antares hit the ground. If you wish and you have the time, one of the LM crew there could select P24, and we've got the numbers to set into NOUN 89. And we'll give you a - an LMPact time. You may be able to see it hit.

147:12:47 Roosa:Okay. P24, NOUN 89. Ready to copy.

147:12:51 CC:Okay. Right now, we may have an update on this with - after they track it, after the burn but right now, minus 03.527, minus 09.576, and a plus all balls. Over .

147:13:15 Roosa:Yes, I copy minus 03.527, minus 09*579, plus all zips.

147:13:23 CC:Okay. That second register, last digit is 6, minus 09.576.

147:13:36 Roosa:Okay. Minus 09*576. And what's the time of LMPact ?

147:13:41 CC:Okay. LMPact time will be 148:22:19* This is about a minute and 40 seconds prior to when you'll start pitching for the - the C0AS maneuver. Over.

147:14:07 Roosa:Okay.

147:14:10 CC:If it's handy and you wanted to try to photograph it through the sextant, we'd suggest using C-EX at a 24 frames per second, l/60th-of-a-second shutter speed, and start it at 30 seconds prior to LMPact, and let it run through to 30 seconds after. Over.

147:14:37 Roosa:Okay.

147:14:39 CC:And the LM is burning now.

147:14:45 Roosa:Okay.

147:20:50 Roosa:Houst - Houston, 14.

147:20:52 CC:Go ahead.

147:20:57 Roosa:Okay. Those other procedures called for 250 and f/11. Isn't it going to be a little darker over at Lansberg, Gordon? Do we want to change those settings?

147:21:12 CC:Stand by, Stu.

147:22:09 CC:Apollo 14, Houston. We'd like you to use f/ll, l/250th, focus infinity. Over.

147:22:32 Roosa:Okay. f/H, l/250th, and infinity.

147:22:36 CC:That's affirmative.

147:26:28 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

147:26:33 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

147:26:39 CC:Okay. That NOUN 89 and the time of LMPacts for the - for Antares are good, after looking at it after its burn. And if you're going to - Are you going to be using the DAC on the sextant? If so, we'll call a start and stop time to you.

147:26:57 Roosa:That ' s negat ive.,

147:27:01 CC:Okay. And just one other thing. We want to be sure that we see P30 and P40 before your AOS. There shouldn't be any problem with them. Before your LOS.

147:27:21 Roosa:Okay. We'll sure try.

147:30:10 Roosa:We'll just let you look at them early, Gordon.

147:30:13 CC:Roger. We're looking.

147:30:31 CC:P40 looks good to us.

147:30:37 Roosa:Okay.

147:32:36 CC:Stu, this is Houston.

147:32:41 Roosa:Go ahead.

147:32:43 CC:We've got about 9 and a half minutes until LM LMPact. And at the risk of insulting your intelligence, we just wanted to remind you to - that, if you do reselect P30 between now and the - and the burn, be sure to reload the NOUN 81s.

147:33:05 Roosa:Okay. We won't reselect P30.

147:33:06 CC:Roger.

147:37:43 CC:14, Houston.

147:37:51 Roosa:Go ahead.

147:37:52 CC:We'd like to have the TAPE RECORDER switch FORWARD prior to starting your COAS maneuver.

147:38:03 Roosa:Yes. We'll give you a FORWARD and HIGH BIT RATE.

147:38:06 CC:Okay. Four minutes to LMPact, now.

147:39:14 CC:LMPact in 3 minutes.

147:39:42 CC:Stu, for your information, trunnion should be about 41 degrees at LMPact. So, it probably won't clear the limit until just before - just before LMPact.

147:40:44 CC:Apollo 14, Houston. I've got a change to the setting on the Hasselblad, a last minute change. Over.

147:40:55 Roosa:Go ahead.

147:40:56 CC:Okay. They want it at f/8 and l/125th of a second, f/8 and l/125th. Over.

147:41:44 CC:14, Houston. Thirty seconds to LMPact.

147:42:59 CC:Stu, 1 minute to T-start on the 500-millimeter.

147:43:10 Roosa:T-start now, I believe.

147:43:19 CC:You're right. My mistake.

147:43:30 Shepard:Houston, 14. ...

147:43:41 CC:14, Houston. Say again, please.

147:43:50 Shepard:We were unable to see the LM LMPact in the optics.

147:43:56 CC:Roger, A1. Unable.

147:49:01 CC:14, Houston. We'd like a frame count on the Hasselblad, for this last pass here. Over.

147:49:11 Roosa:Okay, stand by 1.

147:49:28 Roosa:Okay, we went from 131 to 169, Gordon.

147:49:33 CC:Roger. 131 to 169; and, for your information, both the ALSEP seismometers are ringing like mad.

147:50:22 CC:14, Houston. Give us OMNI Delta, please.

147:53:32 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

147:53:37 Mitchell:Go ahead.

147:53:42 CC:14, Houston. We have about 16 and a half minutes to LOS. We'd like to see you in burn attitude and also get a look at P40 prior to losing you.

147:53:57 Mitchell:Okay, Gordon. ... that.

147:57:52 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

147:57:57 Mitchell:Go ahead, Houston.

147:57:59 CC:Would you put the TAPE RECORDER switch to FORWARD; and then, we'll take care of commanding it for -for the upcoming LOS.

147:58:13 Mitchell:You have it.

147:58:17 CC:Roger.

148:01:41 CC:14, Houston. Nine minutes now to LOS. And we'd like to see you at burn attitude, if possible, before you go LOS.

148:01:52 Mitchell:Okeydoke,

148:05:49 CC:14, Houston. For your information, in about 5 seconds, you'll be 30 minutes from ignition. I'll give you a mark. Ready -

148:06:00 CC:MARK.

148:06:04 Mitchell:Okay, thank you.

148:06:40 CC:14, Houston. P40 looks okay to us.

148:06:49 Mitchell:Thank you.

148:08:30 CC:14, Houston. Two minutes to LOS.

148:08:37 Mitchell:Roger.

148:08:38 Roosa:Roger, Gordon.

148:08:39 CC:14, Houston, One minute to LOS, and we'll see you on your way home.

148:08:40 Roosa:Roger, Gordon.

148:35:00 :BEGIN LUNAR REV 35

148:47:07 CC:Apollo 14, Houston. How do you read?

148:47:44 CC:Apollo 14, Houston. How do you - -

148:47:45 Shepard:Hello, Houston; Apollo 14.

148:47:47 CC:Roger, Al. You're loud and clear.

148:47:49 Shepard:Reading you loud and clear, Houston. Okay, Gordo. We had a good burn. Good burn. We're on the way home. Burn time was 1 second long: 2 plus 29; residuals before trimming, plus 0.6, plus 0.8, minus 0.1; residuals after trimming, plus 0.2, plus 0.8, minus 0.1; DELTA-V^, minus 21.1; fuel, 25; oxygen, 24; unbalanced decreased 40. Very smooth burn.

148:48:24 CC:Roger , Al. That's good news.

148:48:29 Shepard:You bet. We're making like tourists with the cameras right now.

148:48:36 CC:Roger.

148:51:52 CC:Apollo 14, Houston. We have some flight-plan changes for you. The first of them, though, is not effective until about an hour from now; so, anytime anyone has some free time, I'll read them up.

148:52:11 Roosa:Okay, Gordon. We'll catch them in a little bit, if you want. We're enjoying the view.

148:52:15 CC:Roger, Stu.

149:03:39 Shepard:Okay, Houston. 14 is standing by for the flight-plan update.

149:03:43 CC:Okay, Al. Let's see, open the page to 150:30.

149:03:57 Shepard:Okay.

149:03:59 CC:We'd like you to do everything as shown on up to the VERB 48 there at 150:35, or so. And then, we've got another procedure to - for one last-ditch try with the Hycon. The theory behind this is that in a static attitude with the FMC turned off, even though the shutter is malfunctioning, they think they can get an image on the film and then compensate for any exposure - off-nominal exposure to the film by development afterwards. The procedure is not too lengthy, but find some blank paper to write it on there.

149:04:59 Shepard:Gordo, are you really serious about dragging up the Hycon, now? We?re just getting ready to go to sleep here, as soon as finish these handheld pictures.

149:05:09 CC:Okay. If - -

149:05:11 Roosa:Hey, Gordon, a little - Hey, Gordon.

149:05:14 CC:Go ahead.

149:05:16 Roosa:A little clarification on that. See, we hadn't planned on it. We've got it all stowed and everything all over it, since we hadn't planned on -on using it. It's pretty tough to get to, now.

149:05:28 CC:Okay. I was instructed to mention it to you. If you had any feelings about it, well, just forget the whole thing; and that's what we'll do - just scrub it. So, after you change the DAP load there, we'd like you to do the procedures, as shown an hour later there at 151:30; go into PTC and presleep; and you're clear to hit the sack after that.

149:05:58 Shepard:Okay. 151:30, PTC, presleep, and rest period.

149:06:03 CC:Right. I don't mean to say you have to wait until 151:30 to do it. The procedures, as shown at that time, you can do those as soon as you're ready.

149:06:14 Shepard:Oh, okay. Thanks. We'll probably do them a little sooner than that, then.

149:06:22 CC:If you'll give us P00 and ACCEPT, we'll give you a PTC REFSMMATT,

149:06:35 Roosa:Okay, you got it, Gordon: P00 and ACCEPT.

149:06:37 CC:Okeydoke.

149:07:21 CC:14, Houston. At your convenience, we'd like the NOUN 93 figures on that last P52, prior to TEI.

149:07:37 Shepard:Stand by 1.

149:08:33 CC:14, Houston. Uplink's complete. Your computer.

149:08:43 Roosa:Okay; we got it.

149:09:25 Shepard:Okay, Houston, on the last 52: NOUN 71* 24, 31; NOUN 05, all zeros; NOUN 93 is plus .018, minus .091, plus .050; GET torque, 146:58:25-

149:09:51 CC:Okay, A1, we copy that.

149:22:41 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

149:22:48 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

149:22:51 CC:We notice that you are maneuvering to the attitude listed after that P52 option 1, which might not work for P52.

149:23:08 Roosa:Okay, thank you.

149:50:13 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

149:50:42 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

149:53:34 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

149:55:25 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

149:55:37 CC:14, Houston. If you read, you might cage your BMAGs, go to RATE 2.

149:58:48 CC:14, Houston. If anybody reads, you're dragging your BMAGs.

150:09:59 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

150:16:00 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

150:28:01 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

150:35:31 Roosa:Hello, Houston; 14.

150:35:34 CC:Roger. You're still there, huh?

150:35:41 Roosa:Well, don't know if you been trying to call or not. We've been hustling around on this storage, here.

150:35:49 CC:Roger.

150:35:51 Roosa:And, do our rates look good enough for spinup?

150:36:02 CC:Stand by 1, Stu. Stu, if you'll give us P00 and ACCEPT, we'll get a state vector before we spin up, there.

150:36:20 Roosa:That sounds good.

150:36:24 CC:Also, I guess we're going to have one for you to write down by hand.

150:36:33 Roosa:Okay.

150:36:35 CC:I don't have it yet. For your information, we got a - we got a monster midcourse 5 coming up at TEI plus 17 of 1 foot per second.

150:36:56 Roosa:Hey, that's good. TEI plus 17, huh?

150:37:00 CC:Roger.

150:37:03 Roosa:You all sure do good work.

150:37:07 CC:So do you guys. We thought you'd all gone to sleep on us up there.

150:37:14 Roosa:Well, we were working on that, but we didn't have any place to sleep. We?re unindated [sic]. So, we've been scurrying around trying to get things in some sort of order.

150:37:26 CC:Roger. Well, we want to power down your tired bodies, here, as soon as you can arrange it. We have nothing at all programed for about the next 12 hours. You guys have been doing an outstanding job here in the last couple of days, and we appreciate it.

150:37:44 Roosa:Okay, Deke, I'll pass that on. I'm the only one on the loop right now.

150:37:48 CC:Roger.

150:38:49 CC:Stu, it's your computer. I'll have that pad in a minute or two.

150:38:56 Roosa:Okay. Thank you.

150:39:41 CC:Stu, on the sleep, we won't wake you until - until an hour or so after the scheduled wake up time unless you're up sooner. Over.

150:39:57 Roosa:All right. Thank you.

150:40:05 CC:And I got the state vector for you.

150:40:10 CMF:Okay, stand by 1.

150:40:27 Roosa:Okay, Gordon, ready to copy.

150:40:29 CC:Okay, it is a state vector 71. GET of 151:15:00; index 21, and address 2 is 01501, 00002, 03742; line five there is 11325, 76267, 44423; line 10, 77055, 42764, 13266, 10307, 70560; line 15 is 54223, 73757, 44252, 06426; line 21, 32440. Over.

150:43:32 Roosa:Okay, reading state vector VERB 71; 151:15:00; index 21, 01501, 00002, 03742; 11325, 76267, 44423; 77055, 42764, 13266, 10307, 70560; 54223, 73757, 44252, 06426; 32440.

150:44:22 CC:Roger; your readback's correct.

150:45:10 CC:Stu, this is Houston. Computer is yours. The yaw jet's just about to fire; and so, we'll wait a little bit here, on the PTC spinup. Just want to be sure you have all your - your urine dump complete before - before you do it.

150:45:32 Roosa:Okay. Yes, why don't you hold off on that for a little bit and we'll - We're not quite ready to spin it up.

150:45:41 CC:Okay.

150:47:17 CC:Hey, Stu; this is Houston. Is your clean happy home still clean?' We haven't heard much comment about any microlunar samples floating around.

150:47:31 Roosa:Yes. It's amazingly clean, Deke, Almost no dust at all. The suits were a little dirty but vacuumed off, and we got almost zero in the command module.

150:47:50 CC:Outstanding.

151:13:26 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

151:13:31 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

151:13:33 CC:Yes, Stu. You guys aren't worrying about stowing the probe at the present time, are you?

151:13:42 Roosa:No. No, Deke. We're just getting a little chow and getting - getting squared away - sort of relaxing and looking at the full Moon coming -going away from us and so forth. No, we're in good shape.

151:13:55 CC:Okay. Fine. Well, we got a nice exotic procedure to read up to you some time in the next couple of days on final stowage on that thing. And we didn't want you worrying about it.

151:14:06 Roosa:No, we're - We put it in a resting place up in the tunnel. We figured that'd be pretty good until we got back.

151:14:14 CC:Okay.

151:14:17 Roosa:And ready to reenter.

151:14:19 CC:Roger.

151:39:00 Roosa:Houston, 14.

151:39:04 CC:14, Houston. Go ahead, Stu.

151:39:08 Roosa:Okay, Gordon. We're ready to spin up any time the rates look good to you, and I have some onboard read-outs.

151:39:18 CC:Okay. Well, they're taking a check on it. They want to look at it a minute or 2, Go ahead with the read-outs.

151:39:27 Roosa:Okay. Yes, they might have some rates, now; I just - maybe want to wait a little bit, but - Okay: BAT C, 37.0; pyro A, 37.2; pyro B, 37.2; RCS, 60, 58, 60, 6o.

151:39:49 CC:Okay. We got all .that.

151:40:00 CC:And, we'd like to remind you that - to be sure when we get the PTC going, to start - to go the -get the comm configured as shown in the checklist.

151:40:06 Roosa:We'll do that. And far as crew status, we're all okay; no medication. And, you ready for an E-MOD dump?

151:40:18 CC:Not yet; we're getting configured.

151:40:23 Roosa:Okay.

151:41:07 CC:We're ready for VERB 74.

151:41:14 Roosa:Okay. Coming at you.

151:41:48 Roosa:Houston, 14.

151:41:49 CC:Go ahead.

151:41:53 Roosa:Okay, Gordon. Just to make sure we're all together, you want to use the OMNI mode for comm?

151:44:00 CC:Affirmative.

151:44:04 Roosa:Okay.

151:45:00 CC:Stu, would you be sure that that WASTE MANAGEMENT OVERBOARD DRAIN is closed tight. We want to be sure that this one takes, so that we don't have to interrupt your sleep. And, if it is, then you're GO for spinup.

151:45:19 Roosa:Okay.

162:42:12 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. Reveille, Reveille; heave out and trace up.

162:42:26 Mitchell:Good morning, Bruce. How are you this morning?

162:42:28 CC:Sweepers , man your brooms; clean sweepdown fore and aft.

162:42:35 Mitchell:Yes, all the sweepers are still asleep around here.

162:42:40 CC:Okay, Ed. How are you all this morning?

162:42:45 Mitchell:Really great, Bruce; really great. How are things there?

162:42:49 CC:Beautiful; everybody's relaxed down here and anticipating your arrival on schedule.

162:42:57 Mitchell:Very good.

162:42:59 Roosa:Good morning, Bruce.

162:43:02 CC:Who's that? Stu?

162:43:05 Mitchell:Yes, he's waking up over there.

162:43:06 Roosa:Yes, man.

162:43:08 CC:Hey, Ed, if you feel like configuring the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA for us, we'd like to set up in a REACQ mode but not select HIGH GAIN, yet. Over.

162:43:22 Mitchell:Okay.

162:43:24 CC:Okay, first off, we need the - -

162:43:26 Mitchell:Jfy angles - -

162:43:29 CC:Roger. We need a PITCH of minus 40 and a YAW of plus 90, that's PITCH, minus 40; YAW, plus 90, set in on the dials; WIDE BEAM, MANUAL TRACK -make it WIDE BEAM and REACQ, but do not select the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA until we call you.

162:43:53 Mitchell:Okay, Houston. Out.

162:43:57 CC:Roger. And I guess we needed to have the HIGH GAIN in MANUAL long enough for the antenna to go to those angles, then to REACQ.

162:44:13 Mitchell:It's there.

162:44:14 CC:Beautiful.

162:44:33 CC:14, Houston. When you all feel like discussing things, we've got oh - about five or six items here, including a consumables update and a short update to the procedures on one of the inflight DEMOs, and some discussion on midcourses in general. Nothing very pressing; in fact, nothing pressing at all. We would like to get the P23 scheduled at 164 hours, started within about half an hour of the nominal time. Over.

162:45:15 Roosa:Yes, Bruce. I'd like to go ahead and maybe start that one about now and then, P23, go ahead get going on it.

162:46:06 CC:Apollo 14, this Is Houston. We'd like you to select the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA at this time. And, Stu, we see that you?ve got a P52 to run prior to getting to the P23. We suggest you go ahead and go through that and start the P23, more or less, at the nominal time.

162:46:32 Roosa:Okay.

162:46:35 Mitchell:Adjust HIGH GAIN.

162:50:28 CC:14, this is Houston. Did you call?

162:50:34 Mitchell:Yes, that's affirm. I went to REACQs, Bruce. The antennas started driving around in a wild circle. I'm back on the OMNIs now.

162:50:45 CC:Okay. We copy, Ed. Stand by.

162:52:04 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. We'd like to remain on OMNIs. You may stow the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA, MANUAL and WIDE, at PITCH, minus 52; YAW, 270. Over.

162:52:21 Mitchell:Roger. MANUAL and WIDE; minus 52 and 270.

162:52:27 CC:Roger.

162:59:31 Shepard:Houston, Apollo 14 standing by for the consumables update.

162:59:37 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. The consumables update for 162 hours follows: RCS total 48.8; quads in order, 48.9, 48.1, 49.6, 48.6; hydrogen, 45.7, 45.0; oxygen, 73.0, 70.2, 21.6. Over.

163:00:24 Shepard:Houston - -

163:00:27 CC:Say it again, 14.

163:00:34 Shepard:Okay. A readback of 162 hours - -

163:00:49 CC:14, this is Houston. We're changing antennas. Standby, please.

163:06:26 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. How do you read now? Over.

163:06:32 Mitchell:Loud and clear; go ahead.

163:06:34 CC:Roger, Ed. I didn't get your readback on that consumables update. We switched OMNI antennas about that time. Were you happy with what you copied?

163:06:45 Mitchell:That's affirm. Here, I'll read it back to you. The only ones in doubt is the 0^ tank 3 and, first decimal place. Okay, GET 162:00; RCS 48.8, order of 48.9, 48.1, 49.6, 48.6; H 45.7, 45.0; 0 73.0, 70.2, 21.

163:07:16 CC:Roger. 21.6 on 0^ tank 3; and whenever it's convenient with you all, we would like to get that postsleep status report and acknowledgment on the postwakeup stuff on 162.

163:07:41 Mitchell:Roger. I'll have it for you in a minute.

163:07:43 CC:Roger. No rush.

163:08:25 CC:14, Houston. We are copying your torquing angles

163:08:31 Roosa:Okay, Bruce, and I'm torquing at 163:48:37.

163:08:44 CC:Roger, Stu. And you can go on with the P23 whenever it suits your convenience.

163:08:52 Roosa:Okay.

163:11:26 Mitchell:Houston, 14.

163:11:28 CC:Go ahead, 14.

163:11:33 Mitchell:Okay, we verify that ...

163:11:37 CC:You're cutting out, Ed.

163:11:42 Mitchell:All of the items on the postsleep checklist have been completed. A1 had 7 hours sleep, Stu 6, Ed 7. And, unfortunately, the PRD is not available at the moment, and we will have to forget about the ...

163:11:58 CC:Roger. We copy.

163:12:10 Mitchell:Yes, and we've had no medication. We are al 1 in excellent ... So, just tell the surgeon to sit back in his chair and have a cup of coffee; we're fine.

163:12:22 CC:Okay, I'll see if the recovery coffee or the procedures coffee - network coffee pot is working here, and we?ll get him a cup of coffee.

163:12:34 Mitchell:Have one for me, too.

163:12:36 CC:I just did, Ed.

163:15:45 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. On arrival in the optics-calibration attitude, we'd like to get the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA in WIDE BEAM width, MANUAL and with the flight-plan angles. Over.

163:16:00 Roosa:Okay. We can handle that, Bruce.

163:16:04 CC:Roger, Stu. And could you also verify that you're still on the SECONDARY, SERVO ELECTRONICS, POWER for the HIGH GAIN?

163:16:14 Roosa:That's verified.

163:16:17 CC:Okay.

163:22:53 Mitchell:Houston, switching to the HIGH GAIN.

163:23:07 CC:Roger, 14; we?re receiving you loud and clear, now.

163:23:36 CC:And, Ed; this is Houston. If you have got the flight plan handy, I've got a change to the heat flow and convection procedures, as called out in the back of the flight plan for you.

163:23:49 Mitchell:Stand by, I don't have it handy, ... Houston, just a moment. But - -

163:23:54 CC:Okay, well, let's get that later. Let him use it.

163:25:09 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. Just for your information, RCS status shows about 131 feet per second DELTA-V remaining, and SPS is about 510 feet per second. Over.

163:25:31 Mitchell:Okay, Bruce. Thank you.

163:25:36 CC:And, looking ahead at the midcourse situation here, we'll have a decision for you shortly on whether we want to burn midcourse 5 or not. Right now, its magnitude looks like something on the order of a half to three-quarters of a foot per second. With no midcourses at all coming back, your gamma is minus 6.97 degrees. If we start making midcourses, 5 they say, would be about a half to three-quarters of 6's on the order of three-quarters of a foot per second, and 7 looks like about 2.7 or something on that order reading out. We'll keep you posted. We owe you some detail procedures on probe stowage, which will be up later on today. And, when Stu gets through with the P23, we'd like to clarify the status of his biomed harness. We didn't get any data from him up until about 160 hours this morning; and then, it came in loud and clear.

163:26:52 Mitchell:Okay. I think we can clarify that for you.

163:26:54 Roosa:I can verify the biomed harness is okay, Bruce.

163:26:58 CC:Okay. Was it switched on all the time, or did you get up and switch it on about 160?

163:27:08 Roosa:You've got it right.

163:27:15 CC:Roger, Out.

163:27:49 CC:And, 14; this is Houston. I've got some questions on the subject of the AGS again for ED, when he's free; and we've also got some news items if you're interested in hearing the news.

163:37:07 CC:Apollo 14; this is Houston, Stu. Over.

163:37:15 Roosa:Go ahead, Bruce.

163:37:16 CC:Yes, Stu. If you could leave your NOUN 49 up there in the DSKY just a little bit longer, we could copy. We got the first one okay. We missed the last one here.

163:37:25 Roosa:Okay. The first one was 21.2, and the second one was 1.9.

163:37:29 CC:Okay, thank you.

163:37:39 Roosa:And, Bruce? I want to verify that the state vector I'm working on now is the - is the TEI state vector. Is that affirmative?

163:37:57 CC:That's affirmative, Stu. And we'd like to get MEDIUM BEAM WIDTH on the HIGH GAIN.

163:38:13 Mitchell:Got it, Bruce.

163:38:16 CC:Thank you, Ed.

163:39:33 CC:Okay. We got that one, Stu. Just about 5 or 10 seconds is enough.

163:39:43 Roosa:Okay.

163:50:13 CC:And, Stu, this is Houston. We're readying a checkpoint down here and, consequently, have no data for a minute or two. We'll call you when we're back in business; otherwise, we'd like you to keep the NOUN 49 for this next star, Antares, showing until we call you. Over.

163:50:36 Roosa:Okay. I can just write them down for you.

163:50:56 CC:Say, Stu, you'd better hold off on actually making the mark. We want to get the shaft and trunnion angles off of the displays also.

163:51:07 Roosa:Okay. I'll just stand by 1; no problem.

163:51:11 CC:Okay. And we're back in business, Stu. You can press on.

163:51:16 Roosa:Well, that was good timing.

163:53:02 CC:Ed, this is Houston. If you have a minute, we'd like to get the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA pointing angles tweaked up for maximum signal strength. We're showing about a PITCH of minus 60 and a YAW of 0 as being appropriate. Over.

163:53:26 CC:You got it, Stu?

163:56:29 CC:Got it, Stu?

163:58:08 CC:We got it, Stu.

164:05:37 CC:We got it, Stu.

164:08:21 CC:We've got it, Stu.-'

164:10:06 CC:We've got that one also, Stu.

164:17:44 CC:Okay, we got it.

164:19:48 CC:Okay, we got it.

164:30:41 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. We copied the last NOUN 49 value there. And, for Stu's information, based on the sightings taken on the first three stars, we're showing that the program and the marks are all working out in excellent fashion within 1 sigma of the expected values. From the trench comes the information that your state vector compared with their estimate without any midcourse corrections, which show you arriving at entry interface 4 minutes earlier than the MSFN vector, at the present time. Over.

164:31:22 Roosa:Okay, we'll see what - if we can work on that 4 minutes.

164:31:25 CC:Roger.

164:31:26 Roosa:And we're going to be playing around here with the program a little bit.

164:31:30 CC:Okay. And, when you're through with that and prior to starting your maneuver to the thermal attitude, we'd like to go through a normal acquisition procedure on the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA, hopefully winding up in AUTO and NARROW BEAM WIDTH to verify its tracking capabilities during the maneuver. Over.

164:31:54 Mitchell:Okay, Bruce. Say again when you want to do this.

164:31:58 CC:Roger. When Stu's through with his P23 and prior to starting the maneuver to thermal attitude that you've got called out - oh, at about 164:55, VERB 49, maneuver to thermal attitude. Over.

164:32:14 Mitchell:Okay. Will do.

164:38:31 CC:14, Houston. If you want to sit there in P00 and ACCEPT for a minute, we've got the target load and state vector update for you.

164:38:44 Roosa:Okay. We're P00 and ACCEPT. I guess we're going to do midcourse 5, huh.

164:38:50 CC:Roger. Sorry about that. Yes, we will burn midcourse 5 as scheduled. And I've got the midcourse 5 pad for you whenever you're ready to copy.

164:39:03 Roosa:Okay. Stand by 1.

164:39:52 Mitchell:Houston, Apollo 14. Ready to copy it.

164:39:55 CC:Roger, Ed. Midcourse correction number 5; RCS/G&N; 24561; pitch and yaw trim, N/A.

HIGH GAIN angles in this attitude: PITCH, minus 90; YAW, plus 206. Read back over.

164:41:57 Mitchell:Give again the jets to use, please, sir.

164:42:01 CC:Jets Bravo and Delta, B and D. Over.

164:42:08 Mitchell:Okay. Okay, midcourse 5; RCS/G&N; 24561; N/A, N/A; at 166:14:58.54; plus 0000.7, minus all zips, minus all zips; 092, 330, 009; N/A, plus 0018.9, 0000.7, 0:03, 0000.7; 33, 256.3, 13.5; N/A; minus 27-03, minus 172.62, 1158.8, 36251; 216:28:03; Sirius and Rigel; 230, 170, 002; plus-X, two jet, B and D. HIGH GAIN ANTENNA angles: PITCH, minus 90; YAW, 206.

164:43:34 CC:Roger. Readback is correct. And were you aware that you're now coming back on Wednesday instead of Tuesday?

164:43:45 Shepard:No, we haven't considered that fact. But I guess we'll make it up between the splashdown and Houston, right.

164:43:50 CC:(Laughter) Roger, Roger you. After the TEI burn, it looks like you're about 3 or 4 miles west of the jog in the international dateline, as it comes down through your splashdown area.

164:44:10 Mitchell:Okay.

164:44:34 CC:14, Houston. The computer is yours. You can maneuver to the midcourse correction 5 attitude without going through the thermal attitude; that won't be required. And we would like to go through the normal REACQ procedure on the HIGH GAIN ANTENNA, prior to starting the maneuver, and see if it tracks. Over.

164:45:00 Mitchell:Okay. Will do.

164:45:03 CC:And, for Stu, we've got two minor corrections to the procedures for the heat-flow experiment, as found in the back of the flight plan.

164:45:16 Roosa:I don't believe it. Stand by 1.

164:45:45 Roosa:Okay, I have the procedures out, Bruce.

164:45:47 CC:Okay. On the heat-flow and convec - convection demonstration, under step 2 was zone low, power on. It currently reads 15 minutes. Turns out that all that's required here is 10 minutes. Over.

164:46:09 Roosa:That's easy. Okay, under step 2, zone low, power on, 10 minutes.

164:46:15 CC:Roger. And down there under step 4, zone high, power on, it's now 10 minutes, and you can reduce that to 5 minutes.

164:46:29 Roosa:Okay, 5 minutes under step 4.

164:46:32 CC:Roger. And there's no problem involved in these. It just appears that the color changes in the crystals will saturate at about this time, so rather than using up more power, we can just shut it off at that point. Over.

164:46:50 Mitchell:Bruce, we lost you there for a minute. Let me read you right and understand exactly what you want me to do, ... go ahead and lock on and REACQ, and medium or ...

164:47:05 CC:Negative, Ed. We want you to go through a normal manual acquisition procedure, winding up in AUTO and NARROW, over.

164:47:17 Mitchell:Okay. But I'm already on the HIGH GAIN right now so I .. .

164:47:23 CC:Okay. Then we're showing you minus 109 dB, so we must have lost you on the HIGH GAIN there, or you pointed off when you started the maneuver.

164:47:38 Mitchell:* * ?

164:48:11 CC:Okay, Ed. What we want you to do is to go to AUTO and WIDE BEAM WIDTH, and acquire us on the antenna; and then progressively narrow it down from WIDE to MEDIUM to NARROW. Over.

164:48:25 Mitchell:Okay. Thank you. You have it.

164:48:34 CC:Beautiful. I guess this is a semantics problem here, Ed. The INCOs have been using the terminology of standard acquisition to LMPly pointing the antenna towards the Earth manually, then going to AUTO and WIDE, getting it to lock up, and then on down into NARROW BEAM to complete the acquisition. Over.

164:49:07 Mitchell:Roger. That's what I understand as a normal acquisition, but I thought I heard the word REACQ a couple of times LMPlying a position of the antenna, and I was confused on that one.

164:49:20 CC:Negative. That wasn't our intent.

164:49:25 Mitchell:Okay, Houston.

164:49:34 CC:And, Stu, this is Houston. We'd like to remind you not to select P37 prior to the midcourse burn now that we've loaded the data for your burn from the ground. Over.

164:49:52 Roosa:Okay.

164:50:03 CC:14, Houston. You reported to us earlier that the weight of the ISA as determined on the lunar surface prior to lift-off was 50 pounds. If, In your opinion, this weight has changed to greater than 55 pounds as a result of the LM return to CSM stowage, then we'll have to make provisions for tying it down. We'd like to get your feel for what the current weight on the ISA is. Over.

164:50:46 Mitchell:Roger, Bruce. We*11 tell you it weighs exactly 54.9.

164:50:52 CC:Okay, Ed. We copy 54.9 for the ISA.

164:51:47 Mitchell:Houston, 14.

164:51:49 CC:Go ahead, 14.

164:51:53 Mitchell:A clarification on the ISA, remember now, there are a few program things that are listed in the flight plan that went into it after it was weighed. Are you taking that into account?

164:52:08 CC:Roger. We got the weight at 50 pounds from the lunar surface and can add in, if you like, down here those things. We were just interested in getting your feel for what had all been put in. And, if so, what the - what the weight increase would be.

164:52:30 Mitchell:Okay, Bruce. This - The things that are in the flight plan to go into the ISA were added in as programed. And any additional items are almost negligible in weight and certain - certainly did not violate your 5-pound criterion.

164:52:47 CC:Okay. Thank you, Ed.

164:53:08 CC:And if you're interested, we've got the morning's news items here.

164:53:26 CC:Or, alternatively, I've got some additional questions on the AOS for Ed.

164:53:35 Mitchell:Let's take the news first, and then the questions.

164:53:38 CC:Roger. Okay, 14. From Fra Mauro Base comes the word that ALSEP package number 4 continues to function normally during the reporting period, ending at 162 hours GET; the CPLEE heater was turned off; and a long period calibration of the PSE was performed. From West Fra Mauro comes the report that, when Antares augered in last night, the steerable antenna was still locked on, sending back high bit rate telemetry in fine tradition. "Anchorage, Alaska - -

164:54:27 Mitchell:It had to do something to redeem itself.

164:54:32 CC:- - "Anchorage, Alaska - An earthquake measuring between 6.5 and 6.7 on the Ritcher Scale occurred near Adak in the Aleution Islands Saturday, but no damage or injuries were reported. The seismograph-ic station in Berkeley, California, recorded the quake at 150 plus 14 GET, and scientists said it occurred close to the Earth's surface. The Alaska State Patrol said the trembler [sic] was centered south of Adak but was not severe enough to call for large wave warnings." "Stockholm - An Italian and a Norwegian-born Swede plan to repeat the 1909 North Polar Expedition of American Explorer, Admiral Robert E. Perry, right down to fur garments' and sleighs. Some of the Eskimo guides even claim to be descendents of Perry's original Eskimo crew." "Moberly, Missouri - -

164:55:33 Mitchell:Lots of luck on that one.

164:55:35 CC:- - "Moberly, Missouri - A radio station of Moberly has tried a number of times to place a telephone call to Alan Shepard on the Moon. One operator said, 'The Moon? Really? Do you have a number and area code?' Another took it in stride, said, 'All right.' The newsman asked how long it would take, and the operator replied she didn't know; and he was discouraged when, after asking if he could wait, the operator replied 'Okay.' Many operators laughed, but one ended the fun with a rejoiner 'Sir, there are no connections for civilians to the Moon at this time. We are sorry.'" "George C. Scott and Ali McGraw have been honored - -

164:56:17 Mitchell:And that was the call A1 was waiting for, too,

164:56:25 CC:- - "George C. Scott and Ali McGraw have been honored as best actor and actress in the Foreign Press Association's 28th Annual Golden Globe Presentations in Beverly Hills, California. Miss McGraw received her award for her part in 'Love Story.' Scott was selected for his part as General George Patton in 'Patton.'" "Houston - At the River Oaks Country Club, golf pro Jack Arden was quoted in this morning's paper as saying that, 'A1 has got a pretty good swing and could be a real good player if he worked at it.'" Along that line in the other golf news, Arnold Palmer, Tom Shore, and Dewitt Weaver are all tied for first place in The Haiwaian Open with scores of 204. That was after a third round yesterday, and a final round is to be played today.

164:57:24 Mitchell:The only way A1 can keep his arm straight, though, is to wear the suit, and that gets cumbersome on the golf course.

164:57:32 CC:Roger that. "The Houston Astros have passed the halfway point in signing on new players for the 1971 season. Signed contracts have come in from 23 of the 43 players who are scheduled to see spring training action. Regulars, such as pitchers Don Wilson and Tom Griffin, catcher John Edwards, and infielders Denis Menke and Bob Watson, and outfielder Norm Miller are already signed up. Also, the Astros have commitments from both their newest acquisitions from the Chicago Cubs, infielder Roger Metzger and catcher/first baseman Jack Hiatt." "New Mexico's Governor Bruce King and his predecessor David Cargo are in a dispute over who owns the Moon rocks presented to Cargo by President Nixon. Cargo took them when he left office December 31- King said he has asked the former Governor to return them back because, 'I think they belong to the State.'" "Charlotte Amalie (St. Thomas), Virgin Islands - the U.S. Virgin Islands is planning a permanent ocean-floor laboratory in Great Lamasher Bay, St. John, to provide a low-cost method of charting the untracked jungles of the world's oceans. The habitat, a large tubular twin-chamber cylinder, will be modeled after the one used in the recent Tektite Program and be financed by the Virgin Islands Government and private industry. The Navy says its first rescue minisub has shown it can locate a submarine trapped under water, lock onto it, and bring its crew to safety. The rescue vessel proved itself in test at a depth of more than 150 feet off San Clemente Island. The 50-foot sub located a metal structure representing a submarine, locked a transfer hatch over it, and brought a man through. They've dubbed the vessel 'the green torpedo.'" On the basketball scene, UCLA put the skids on USC in the big west coast basketball game last night. In a come-from-behind victory, the Bruins edged the Trojans 64 to 60. The Houston Cougars had a real battle with Seattle University at the Hofheinz Pavilion last night. They squeezed out a 93 to 92 win. In the Southwest Conference action, the Rice Owls dumped the Texas Tech Raiders by 80 to 64. Rice, smarting from a three-game losing streak, stopped the Raiders' three-game winning streak. Tech is number - Tech is 4-2 for the season; Rice, 3 and 3. In automobile racing, A. J. Foyt showed his driving prowess by winning the pole position for the big Daytona 500 on February 14. Foyt wowed the crowd as he turned in a qualifying lap time over the 2-and-one-half-mile oval with a clocking of 182.7-Defending stock car champion Bobby Isaac was second with a speed of 180.5 per hour. Foyt, who has never won the Daytona 500, is the favorite now with Isaac to win the 200,000 dollar auto classic. Former U.S. Davis Cupper Arthur Ashe defeated Clark Graebner of New York in the semifinals of the Fidelity invitational tennis tournament in Richmond, Virginia. And that about wraps up the morning news. Over.?

165:01:21 Shepard:That's a very good rundown, Bruce. Very good. Why don't you let us hold off on the answer on the ISA for a minute? We'll run back over our checkout list and review those items while you're probably doing the same thing down there, and we'11 get back together with you a little bit later in the day on a good wave.

165:01:42 CC:Roger. There's certainly no rush on it. We'd just like to know, at - prior to entry, so that we can determine whether it needs to be tied down or not, and if it affects the c.g. any.

165:01:54 Shepard:Okay. We think the additional items are about 5 pounds; and let us go back over the checklist, and we'll give you a good answer later on.

165:02:00 CC:Roger. And when Ed feels in the mood for it, I've got a couple more questions for the AGS.

165:02:09 Shepard:Fire away.

165:02:27 Mitchell:Go ahead, Bruce; I'm ready.

165:02:45 CC:Okay, Ed. When the trouble first showed up, was there anything showing or was there anything left showing in the DEDA? And was it possible for you to clear this display, if there was anything showing? Over.

165:03:04 Mitchell:That's negative. The first time I noticed that there was a problem was when you called my attention to it, that - I don't recall what - don't remember what the call was - but you asked about the - I guess the circuit breakers on the DEDA or on the AGS. That was the first time I ever realized that we had a problem. There was nothing showing on the DSKY. And, of course, I could not ENTER the DSKY or CLEAR it or anything else.

165:03:34 CC:Okay. I guess that about sums it up.

165:03:40 Mitchell:There is one comment. I noticed, just before leaving the LM, there appeared to be a very small crack across the address register on the DEDA. Now, how long it had been there, whether it was bumped after docking, or when it occurred, I have no idea. But there did appear to be a crack in the inner glass on the address register.

165:04:14 CC:Okay. Thank you.

165:11:48 CC:14, this is Houston, On your waste water dump scheduled for 166 hours, we'd like you to dump to 25 percent onboard indication. Over.

165:12:03 Mitchell:Roger. Waste water dump to 25 percent onboard indication.

165:12:07 CC:Roger.

165:18:11 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. For systems recordkeeping purposes, if you have time, we'd like you to run an EMS null bias check, and give us the results on it.

165:18:26 Shepard:Houston, I think we have that number. Stand by.

165:18:29 Mitchell:Okay, minus 990 is the number.

165:18:32 CC:Roger. We copy minus 990.

165:24:03 CC:14, Houston. We'd like to get this waste-water dump out of the way before the midcourse burn. Over.

165:24:11 Shepard:Roger. We'll start it right now.

165:29:07 CC:14, this is Houston. We show oxygen still flowing in the fuel cell purge.

165:29:21 LM?:It's OFF.

165:34:06 CC:14, this is Houston; 1 minute to the burn. We'd like you to terminate the water dump at this time, and go ahead and ENTER on your maneuver there.

165:34:15 Mitchell:Okay, we'll be there.

165:34:54 CC:Your slip T. is okay, 14. ig

165:35:00 Roosa:We're going to just go ahead and burn it on time.

165:35:03 CC:Okay.

165:36:23 Roosa:Okay, Houston; the burn is complete.

165:36:26 CC:Houston. Roger, out.

165:39:27 Roosa:Houston, 14.

165:39:31 CC:Go ahead, 14.

165:39:35 Roosa:Okay, Bruce. I started this maneuver at optics CAL; I don't know if we'll have the HIGH GAIN there or not. Do you want to do the uplinking here? I kind of hate to stop the maneuver. Is OMNI Charlie going to be all right for you for the uplink?

165:39:52 CC:That?s affirmative, Houston - 14.

165:39:56 Roosa:Okay, thank you.

165:42:10 CC:Apollo.

165:42:19 Shepard:Go ahead, Houston.

165:42:24 CC:All right, 14; this is Houston. Could you give us the reading on the DELTA-V counter on the EMS at the end of your burn, again, for systems tracking? Over.

165:42:51 Mitchell:That was 0.3; plus 0.3.

165:42:53 CC:Roger. Plus 0.3. Thank you.

165:49:06 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. Request OMNI Charlie. Over.

165:52:56 Roosa:Houston, 14.

165:52:57 CC:Go ahead, 14.

165:53:00 Roosa:Okay, Bruce. Are you ready for the uplink?

165:53:02 CC:That's affirmative. We're ready to send you up what will become the CM - the CSM state vector after we ship it over, and then there will be about a 2-minute delay while we get the MSFN-computed CSM state vector that goes in the LM slot out to the side. Over.

165:53:22 Roosa:Okay. We?re P00 and ACCEPT, and standing by at your convenience.

165:53:26 CC:Roger; out.

166:01:24 CC:14, this is Houston. We're through with the uplink. Computer's yours.

166:01:32 Roosa:Okay.

166:10:07 CC:Apollo 14, this is Houston. Over.

166:10:13 Mitchell:Go ahead, Bruce.

166:10:15 CC:Say, Ed, We've got some modifications to the high-oxygen-flow tests procedures, here, if you'll advise us when you're ready to copy. Over.

166:10:29 Mitchell:Roger. Stand by.

166:11:20 CC:I understand you're ready to copy, Ed. Over.

166:11:29 Mitchell:Stand by.

166:11:46 Mitchell:Okay, Bruce. What page do you want worked on?

166:11:52 CC:Okay. If you look on page 3-245 of the flight plan, the one that starts at 168 hours.

166:12:02 Mitchell:Okay.

166:12:04 CC:Okay. There are three steps there, that are: circuit breaker 0^ IS0LATI0N/AUX BAT, close, which is panel 226; 0^ TANK 3 ISOLATION valve, CLOSED, momentary; and 0^ TANK 3 ISOLATION valve talk back barber pole. We'd like to move those three steps up to 167 hours. Over.

166:12:43 Mitchell:Okay. The three steps: circuit breaker 0^ ISOLATION/AUX BAT, closed; 02 TANK 3 IS0L valve, CLOSED, momentary; and 02 TANK 3 IS0L valve talk back barber pole. These are moved to 167 hours.

166:12:59 CC:Roger. And, also, at 167 hours: circuit breaker OXYGEN TANK 3, 50-WATT HEATERS, open, 226. Over.

166:13:24 Mitchell:Okay. Say it again, want you want done with that one.

166:13:28 CC:Okay. Also, at 167 hours, we want to open the circuit breaker for OXYGEN TANK NUMBER 3, 50-WATT HEATERS. That?s CB 02 TANK 3, 50-WATT HEATERS, open, on Panel 226. Over.

166:13:57 Mitchell:Okay. You want the TANK 3 - 0^ TANK 3, 50-WATT HEATERS, OPEN.

166:14:06 CC:That's affirmative. You may commence the 0^ high - * flow tests at your convenience, following Stu's completion of the P23. Over.

166:14:19 Mitchell:I understand.

166:14:21 CC:Item number 3. The new heater redline temperature is 350 degrees Fahrenheit - that?s 350 degrees Fahrenheit, which corresponds to 3-6. I say again - 3.6 volts on the SYSTEMS TEST meter. Over

166:15:05 Mitchell:Bruce, say again what the 350 degrees of redline is.

166:15:10 CC:Roger, that's the redline on the heater temperature . Over.

166:15:16 Mitchell:Okay.

166:15:18 CC:And that corresponds to 3-6 volts on the SYSTEMS TEST meter.

166:15:27 Mitchell:Thank you.

166:15:57 CC:And, Ed; for tank 3, that's position 1 Charlie on the SYSTEMS TEST meter.

166:16:06 Mitchell:Okay, thank you.

166:16:10 CC:Okay. Some general comments, the test should be terminated if communications is lost with MSFN. Over.

166:16:24 Mitchell:Understand. You mean - you mean other than just a dropout.

166:16:30 CC:That's affirmative. If we lose communication for any extended period of time.

166:16:42 Mitchell:Okay.

166:16:44 CC:And, for your information, the minimum cabin pressure that we are expecting is in the vicinity of 4.4 to 4.2 psia. However, if the cabin pressure falls below 4.0 psia, you should terminate the test. Over.

166:17:09 Mitchell:Okay. Understand you're expecting 4,2 to 4.4 cabin pressure; if it drops below 4.0, we're to terminate the test.

166:17:17 CC:Roger. And if you're unable to terminate more rapidly than is required to keep the cabin pressure above 3.T, then bring the surge tank and the REPRESS back on line to maintain cabin pressure. Over.

166:17:34 Mitchell:Okay.

166:17:50 CC:Okay, Ed; and, on'the SYSTEMS TEST meter, make that position 1 Bravo, for monitoring tank 3, which is the one that you should be monitoring. Over.

166:18:04 Mitchell:Okay; 1 Bravo, tank 3-

166:18:10 CC:And, then, here?s a fairly long one. If tank 3 heater temperature, or tank 1, exceeds 350 degrees Fahrenheit, place the heater switch to OFF. I'll go all the way through this once, first. When the pressure drops to 800 psi, place heater switch to ON. Monitor tank pressure and heater temperature. Place heater switch to OFF when pressure reaches 930 or heater temp reaches 350, whichever occurs first. Test will be terminated if heater temp reaches 350 prior to tank pressure reaching 850 in this mode of operation. And - I'll go right back and start again from the beginning on that one in a minute. Over.

166:19:04 Mitchell:Okay. Let's see if we can find a way to codify it so that it'll be a little easier to understand.

166:19:17 CC:Okay, condition number 1. If the heater temperature exceeds 350 degrees, put the heater switch to OFF. Over.

166:19:35 Mitchell:Okay. If the heater in tank 3 exceeds 350, heaters to OFF.

166:19:47 CC:Okay. Under the assumption, then, that you're up in a normal operating pressure range when this happens, when the pressure drops - -

166:19:56 Mitchell:Bruce, hold up a minute.

166:19:57 CC:Okay.

166:20:01 Mitchell:Hold up a minute. Let's let Stu complete this P23, and then we'll get back on this. I'm interfering with him by working on the flight plan right now.

166:20:09 CC:Okay; tell you what. Just carry out that stuff at 167 hours, and then, whenever you're ready to press on with this, give us a yell, and we'll go back through the rest of these notes. Over.

166:20:40 Mitchell:Okay.

166:20:53 CC:14, Ed; this is Houston. Since we?ve already given you the instructions to terminate the test if communications is lost, it might be more straight forward if we monitored the heater temps and pressures for you down here and advised you of the action required, if any off-nominal action is required . Over.

166:21:20 Mitchell:Okay; that'll be fine.

166:21:22 CC:Roger; then you've got - you got all of it up there now; and if for any reason you should have to terminate, why, the procedures are over there on page 3-248; they're the nominal termination procedures .

166:21:40 Mitchell:Okay, Bruce; will do.

166:21:42 CC:Roger, out.

166:31:47 CC:14, this is Houston. We'd like to initiate charging on battery Bravo. Over.

166:31:55 Mitchell:Okay, stand by.

166:40:00 CC:Come on, now.

166:40:05 Shepard:All right; go ahead, Houston.

166:40:09 CC:I was just remarking at Stu's NOUN 49 value there, plus one-tenth zero.

166:40:19 Shepard:Well, you're watching the world's leading expert on P23.

166:40:24 CC:Well, I don't know. Jack Swigert wrote a paper on it.

166:40:30 Shepard:We?re aware of that, also. Comment still stands.

166:40:37 Roosa:Yes, that has nothing to do with Al's comment, Bruce.

166:40:42 CC:Okay, I'll pass that along.

166:41:53 Shepard:Bruce, you're also watching the world's leading expert on going from CMC AUTO to FREE and back.

166:42:01 CC:Roger. We copy that, A1.

166:45:04 Shepard:Houston, 14. We are applying power to the dump, AUTO heater, at 167:25, and we'll be doing the test in about 30 minutes.

166:45:16 CC:Roger, Houston. Roger, out.

166:45:35 CC:14, this is Houston. We show that you're in HIGH GAIN ANTENNA coverage area at the present time. We'd like you to acquire on the HIGH GAIN; PITCH, minus 5; YAW, 250. Over.

166:45:51 Shepard:Okay, we're shooting for that now. We're at PITCH, minus 5; YAW, 250.

166:45:59 CC:Roger. Out.

166:46:19 Shepard:Okay, you should have it now, Houston.

166:46:26 CC:Roger, Al. We've got you loud and clear.

167:06:34 CC:Apollo 14, Houston.

167:06:40 Shepard:Go ahead, Houston.

167:06:41 CC:Roger, Al. I just wanted to say, that I get a chance to say hello on the network. You guys did a great job yesterday, and I think things are in beautiful shape coasting home.

167:06:58 Shepard:Well, thank you, Thomas. Appreciate those kind words. We're coming along well up here, too, right now.

167:07:05 CC:Yes. Stu?s marks looking real good, and we had a great team effort on that landing; we'll tell you about it. In fact, I nearly lost all of my hair; would you believe that?

167:07:15 Shepard:(Laughter) No, that would be pretty hard to believe, Tom.

167:07:22 CC:Roger.

167:07:26 Shepard:Now, we're pressing ahead with the flight-plan items here, and we're staying busy.

167:07:30 CC:Roger.

167:08:10 Mitchell:Houston, Apollo 14.

167:08:13 CC:Go ahead, Ed.

167:08:18 Mitchell:Okay, back to our ISA weight problem.

167:08:28 CC:I didn't know we had a problem, but go ahead.

167:08:32 Mitchell:Okay, I was jumped on by both sources, here; it's not a problem; it was a question. The ISA contains the 50 pounds we measured on the surface, less the 100-foot tether, plus the 70-millimeter camera and magazine, plus a pair of EVA gloves, plus the return items on Deke's list.

167:09:12 CC:Okay, Ed. We've got that, and we'11 work the arithmetic on the weights from down here and keep you advised. Over.

167:09:24 Mitchell:Thank you, sir.

167:09:26 CC:Roger. Out.

167:13:15 Roosa:There you go, Bruce.

167:13:23 CC:Okay, Stu. We copied that one for posterity.

167:19:32 Roosa:You got the last one, Bruce?

167:19:40 CC:Yes, we got that one, too, Stu; but you only get the first one framed and authenticated.

167:19:48 Roosa:Okay.

167:19:52 CC:You still on Delta Sagittarii?

167:19:59 Roosa:That's negative. That was the last mark on Antares.

167:20:02 CC:Roger.

167:28:36 Mitchell:Houston, Apollo 14.

167:28:39 CC:Go ahead, 14.

167:28:42 Mitchell:We're starting the 0^ test now. The heaters are going to AUTO. Opening up the flow valve.

167:28:52 Mitchell:Delay that. We're standing by to open up the flow valve. It's not open yet.

167:28:57 CC:Okay. Understand, heaters to AUTO; and you're standing by on the flow valve. Have you got the REPRESS package valve, OFF?

167:29:08 Shepard:Yes. We're changing that now.

167:29:49 Mitchell:Okay, Houston. The plug is up; we're flowing at 168:09:50.

167:29:54 CC:Roger, 14.

167:30:07 Mitchell:The screen has been installed on the adapter.

167:30:10 CC:Roger, the screen.

167:35:27 CC:Apollo 14. Stu, this is Houston. Over.

167:35:34 Roosa:Go ahead, Houston.

167:35:35 CC:Okay. We continue to get praise of your ability on the P23s. Based on your navigation, your idea of your gamma angle at entry interface is minus 6.1 degrees. The MSFN solution corrected for the midcourse 5 burn, but without any postmidcourse tracking is 6.6 degrees. Over.

167:36:06 Roosa:Okay. Yes, I noticed - I was comparing a VERB 83 there, Bruce; and I showed 625 miles, or thereabouts, prior to those last two sightings; and then, it was down to - I don't know 100 and some -after that. I think the sightings on the Moon is what really help bring it in. There were a couple of large updates there, I think, that really helped it.

167:36:36 CC:Okay. That sounds like you're doing good work.

167:36:43 Roosa:Thank you.

167:37:04 CC:14, this is Houston. On telemetry, we're showing a cabin pressure of 4.7 right now and wonder what you've got?

167:37:19 Mitchell:That's about 4.8, what we're showing, Bruce.

167:37:23 CC:Roger. Out.

167:49:30 CC:Okay, 14; Houston. Now, we're showing the surge tank at 750 on our telemetry, now.

167:49:39 Shepard:As a matter of fact, we were just going to call you on that. We have a bias on our gage, that's good, we'll stay with - we're going to start the test at 168:30 - 168:29 - I'm sorry, 168:30:00, surge tank valve going OFF.

167:49:57 CC:This is Houston. Roger. Out.

168:22:34 CC:14, this is Houston. We'd like you to zero the optics, please.
