Apollo 11, this is Houston. Standing by for your readback. Over.

11, Houston. Do you read? Over.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. Do you read? Over.

All of a sudden there, we heard a little click, and the signal strength began to start dropping off. Your transmissions were cut off very abruptly. How do you read now?

Roger. Loud and clear. We had a handover to Madrid about the time I was—I guess halfway through the PAD. If you could give me the last value you read, I'll pick up there. Over.

Okay. Start with DELTA-VZ. Over.

Roger. DELTA-VZ is plus 00190, roll your option, pitch 213 357, and NOUN 44 is NA. DELTA-VT 00197 003 00152. The rest of the PAD is NA, and no ullage. LM weight 33,290. Read back. Over.

Roger, Houston. Evasive maneuver SPS G&N: 63481, plus 095, minus 020 004 40 0100, plus 00051, plus all zeros, plus 00190, roll crew option, 213 357, NA, 00197 003 00152, no ullage, LM weight 33,290. Over.

Houston, Apollo 11.

Go ahead, 11.

We'd like to arm our logic switches.

Go ahead with the logic.

Okay. Mark logic 1 and 2 armed.

Houston, we're ready for LM ejection.

Roger. You're GO for LM ejection.

Thank you.

Houston, we are SEP. We have a CRYO PRESS light.

Roger. Copy. CRYO PRESS light.

Roger, 11. We recommend you turn the O₂ fans on manually and ensure that the O₂ heaters are in the AUTOMATIC position.

Roger. O₂ heaters are ON, and we're going to cycle the O₂ fans now.

Apollo 11, this ls Houston. Over.

Houston, Apollo 11.

Roger. In reference to your question on RCS usage: it looks like you are about 18, maybe 20 pounds below nominal at the present time. No problem at all. Over.

Right.

I wanted to be 18 or 20 pounds above nominal, babe.

Houston, Apollo 11. Could you confirm that pitch gimbal motor number 1 turned off? We just shut all four off, and we got a questionable indication on the ECS on pitch 1.

Roger. Stand by a second.

Houston, did you copy our residuals?

Apollo 11, this is Houston. Stand by, please.

Go ahead, Houston. Did you copy our residuals?

Roger. We got 00 and 0.2, it looks like.

We had 0.1 while ago. It's—just went to 0.2.

Okay.

That EMS DELTA-V counter is minus 4.0.

And how about pitch gimbal 1? Can you confirm that OFF?

Can you stand by just a second on that? At the present time we cannot confirm it OFF. We saw a current drop indicating that several gimbal motors had gone off. We'll be back with you in just a second on it. Over.

Okay, If necessary, we can recycle it.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. If you'll go ahead and cycle pitch gimbal motor number 1 on and then off and give us a Mark, and we'll tell you what we see. Over.

Okay, fine. It's coming back on. Ready.

MARK.

And it's going back off. Ready.

MARK.
