CapCom: Apollo 11, this is Houston. Over.
02 06 39 20
Neil Armstrong (CDR): Go ahead, Houston.
02 06 39 21
CapCom: Roger. We have a TV attitude for you if you're ready to copy.
02 06 39 32
Michael Collins (CMP): Go ahead. Ready to copy.
02 06 39 35
CapCom: Okay. We recommend stopping PTC at GET of 54 45 00, and this should put you at just about the right roll angle. The attitude we recommend is roll 263, pitch 090, yaw 000. This gives you the Earth out of window number 1 in the command module and places the high gain antenna in the CSM window for TV at your convenience. You will also have the Sun shining in—or shining at the hatch on the LM, and if you take down the window shades you should get some sunlight in. We're recommending wide deadband. Over.

02 06 40 36
Michael Collins (CMP): Roger. Thank you, Houston. We'll look at that.
02 06 40 41
CapCom: Roger. Out.
02 06 42 53
Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, Apollo 11. When we pass the proper roll angle, we're not going to be anywhere near zero degrees yaw. Do you want us to just stop and try until we find ourselves in and then VERB 49 the three angles you gave us?
02 06 43 06
CapCom: Stand by.
02 06 43 20
CapCom: Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. We'd like you to stop at the proper roll angle, then do a VERB 49 to the roll and pitch. Over. Correction, roll and yaw.
02 06 43 52
Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, Apollo 11. Over.
02 06 43 54
CapCom: Go ahead, 11. Over.
02 06 44 12
CapCom: Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. Do you read? Over.

Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, Apollo 11. Over.
02 06 44 22
CapCom: Roger, 11. Do you read me? Over.
02 06 44 38
CapCom: Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. Over.
02 06 44 46
Michael Collins (CMP): Stand by, Charlie. Yes, we're going to come out of PTC here at 263 roll and then do VERB 49 to the recommended attitude.
02 06 44 58
CapCom: That sounds fine to us. Over.
02 06 46 56
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. Before you open the pressure equalization valve, we'd like the LM/CM DELTA-P. Over.
02 06 47 06
Michael Collins (CMP): Okay. Let me check it again. It was about 155.
02 06 47 12
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger.
02 06 47 14
Michael Collins (CMP): I read it 158 right now, Charlie.
02 06 47 17
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger. Thank you much.
02 06 49 51
Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, Apollo 11. We're stopping PTC at 263 … 0.
02 06 49 59
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): 11, Houston. You're about one-by on this transmission. Say again. Over.
02 06 50 08
Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, Apollo 11. Do you read?
02 06 51 46
Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, Apollo 11. How do you read on the high gain?
02 06 51 50
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): 11, how do you read me? Over.
02 06 51 55
Michael Collins (CMP): Read you loud and clear, Charlie. We just switched to HIGH GAIN, and we stopped PTC at roll 263, pitch 90, yaw 0. How do you read?
02 06 52 03
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger, Mike. You're five-by now on the high gain. We're right between the OMNI antennas and pretty horrible COMM on the OMNI's. We got you five-by on the high gain, and we copy the PTC stoppage. Over.
02 06 52 18
Michael Collins (CMP): Okay, fine.
02 06 52 35
Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, we're going to open the DIRECT O₂ valve and start pumping up the cabin.
02 06 52 40
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger. Copy.
02 06 53 06
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Apollo 11, Houston. We're going to hand over to Goldstone for uplink in about 2 minutes. We might have a momentary dropout of COMM. Over.
02 06 53 16
Michael Collins (CMP): Alright. Can you hear our master alarm in the background? That's O₂ FLOW HIGH coming through this amplifier.
02 06 53 27
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger. Copy.
02 06 53 37
Michael Collins (CMP): That photoelectric cell is a good device. It's worked very well.
02 06 53 46
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): 11, Houston. Say again. Over.
02 06 53 50
Michael Collins (CMP): I say that photoelectric cell amplifier for the master alarm is a good device. It's working very well, and it's a nice pleasing tone.
02 06 54 00
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger. Copy. Thank you.
02 06 54 08
Michael Collins (CMP): Makes you almost glad to get master alarms.
02 06 55 01
Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, Apollo 11. As a matter of curiosity, our O₂ flow meter is pegged FULL-SCALE HIGH.
02 06 55 08
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger, 11. We copy that here. Over.
02 06 55 14
Michael Collins (CMP): Okay.
02 06 55 26
Michael Collins (CMP): Boy, that transducer's working somewhat.
02 06 55 32
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger.
02 06 55 51
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): 11, Houston. We'd like to try to attempt to correlate your O₂ flow in transducer with the flow valve that you've got open. How far—How far open would you say you have the REPRESS O₂? Over. Correction, the DIRECT O₂.
02 06 56 10
Michael Collins (CMP): Stand by, Charlie.
02 06 56 19
Michael Collins (CMP): Okay, Charlie. It's not open very far. It's hard to give you a good reading without shunting it again, but the arrow is at about the one o'clock position. Now I reduce the flow, and I'll let it stabilize here. Right now our onboard reading is about 0.4, and that's with the arrow in the O₂ valve at the two o'clock position. Would you rather have comparisons of O₂ flow readings or would you rather have valve position comparisons?
02 06 56 48
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger. Stand by.
