Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Apollo 11, this is Houston. Readback correct. Out.
00 01 47 06
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Apollo 11, this is Houston. We've completed the uplink; the computer is yours. You can go back to BLOCK. Would you verify that you have extended the probe? Over.
00 01 47 16
Neil Armstrong (CDR): Roger. That's verified; the probe is extended.
00 01 47 19
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Roger. About 2 minutes to LOS on this stateside pass. AOS Canaries at 1 50 13. Over.
00 01 47 28
Neil Armstrong (CDR): Roger. 1 50.
00 01 50 42
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Apollo 11, this is Houston. Over.
00 01 50 45
Neil Armstrong (CDR): Roger. Houston, Apollo 11. Loud and clear.
00 01 50 49
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Okay. On your service module RCS quad Bravo package temperature, we're showing it running a little low. Looks like about 20 degrees low—lower than the rest of the quads. Would you confirm that your RCS heater switch for quad Bravo is in PRIMARY? Over.
00 01 51 09
Neil Armstrong (CDR): You're correct. It was not in PRIMARY. It was off. It's on now. Thank you.
00 01 51 16
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Roger. Thank you.
00 01 53 50
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Apollo 11, this is Houston. Over.
00 01 53 54
Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, Apollo 11. Go ahead.
00 01 53 56
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Roger. We've checked over the spacecraft and the launch vehicle guidance. They're both looking to be in good shape. We estimate you have better than a 99-percent probability of a guidance cut-off on the launch vehicle, so things are apparently holding in very well. For your information, MILA received approximately 1 minute of a usable TV picture, so apparently the system is working. And you're a little over a minute from LOS at Canary; AOS Tananarive is 2 hours 9 minutes and 18 seconds. Over.
00 01 54 34
Michael Collins (CMP): Roger. We like those 99 numbers. Thank you.
00 01 54 38
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Roger. Out.

CommTech: Roger. We cannot raise Tananarive.
00 02 10 31
CommTech: Houston COMM TECH, Tananarive.
00 02 10 34
CommTech: Roger, Tananarive. Are you receiving CAP COMM's voice, and are you uplinking it?
00 02 10 39
CommTech: Negative.
00 02 10 41
CommTech: Roger. Monitor again and I'll tell CAP COMM to make one more transmission.
00 02 10 51
CommTech: Roger.

00 02 25 53
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Roger. You're coming in very loud and very clear, here. Out.
00 02 26 38
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Apollo 11, this is Houston. You are GO for TLI. Over.
00 02 26 45
Michael Collins (CMP): Apollo 11. Thank you.
00 02 26 48
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Roger. Out.

00 02 30 16
Neil Armstrong (CDR): Houston, 11.
00 02 30 18
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Roger. We'll be coming within range of the ARIA aircraft coverage, here, in about 1 minute. They're going to try uplinking both on S-band and on VHF this time. So if you turn your—make sure your S-band volume is turned up, we'd appreciate it. And we believe that we'll have continuous coverage from now on through the TLI burn. Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Houston, we read you strength 4 and a little scratchy.
00 02 32 34
Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM): Roger. We're reading you strength 5, readability about 3. Should be quite adequate.
