Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. Big Bubba's watching.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Boy, you guys have sure been doing a good job of watching us, Charlie. We appreciate it.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

The spacecraft's been beautiful, 11. We've really no complaints at all. Looks—Things are really great.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Can you see this DSKY on the MDC?

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

That's affirmative. It appears that—can't quite tell what program … went P00. We see you punching in a VERB 35, I think it is. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Yes. Might as well tell the EECOMM's—or tell the GNC and everybody to hold on to their hat and I'll push the EKTER button.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. We see a real display now.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

That's a good demonstration of how the crew has the interface with the computer, talking to the programs and all that we have in the computer.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Well, that's right, Charlie. Sometimes it tells us things and sometimes we tell it things and mostly it talks to us.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

11, Houston, We just lost our pic—I see we're going back outside now. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

11, Houston. We copy. Over.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Roger. We copy, and as we pan back out to the distance at which we see the Earth, well, it's Apollo 11 signing off.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger, Apollo 11. Thank you much for the show. It's a real good half hour. Appreciate it. Thank you very much. Out.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay. That's it, Charlie.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

11, Houston. We appreciate the show. Thank you very much. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Apollo 11, Houston. Would you key ERROR RESET on the DSKY, please? Over.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Okay. We should be straightened out now, Charlie, and back in P00.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Houston, Apollo 11. How do we stand on this O2 fuel cell purge? You want to go ahead and do that as scheduled in the flight plan?

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

11, Houston. You can commence the O2 fuel cell purge now if you'd like. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

While Buzz is doing that, I'll change the lithium hydroxide.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Hello, Apollo 11, Houston. Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Go ahead, Houston. Apollo 11.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger, Buzz. The attitude that we're in right now is a convenient one to start PTC in. We'd be satisfied with this attitude. So we'd like you to disable quads Charlie and Delta; and we'll wait about 5 to 10 minutes, and than we'll establish the PTC. Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Roger. Disable Charlie and Delta, and we'll wait before starting PTC.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Hello, Apollo 11, Houston. The rates are damped out well enough for you to initiate the PTC now. Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Okay. We'll get it going.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Roger. This time the DAP didn't like 0.3. It's—We followed the procedures; we got down to 70 000 ENTER. It took off at about 0.7.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. We're copying that. Stand by.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Houston, Apollo 11. Would you like high gain back?

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. And you—Would you select ATTITUDE HOLD? Over.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Houston. Would you say again what your request is?

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger, 11. We'd like you to go back to ATTITUDE HOLD. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

11, Houston. Looks like we're going to have to reinitialate—reinitialize this PTC.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay. Do you have any roll angle that you'd like to stop it in, Charlie? I haven't stopped it yet.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

11, Houston. It's your preference. Right now if you want to. Over.
