Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Columbia, Houston. The coordinates you have loaded in P22 are—we have—are Site 130 prime. Do you concur? Over.
04 02 29 17
Michael Collins (CMP): I have the coordinates loaded on the cue card which are for crater 130.
04 02 30 03
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Columbia, Houston. We made an error on those coordinates. We'd like you to load for latitude in a NOUN 89 plus 01 243, longitude over 2 plus 11 844, altitude minus 001 46 as shown in the flight plan. Over.
04 02 31 30
Michael Collins (CMP): Okay, Houston.
04 02 33 06
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Eagle, Houston. Could you give us an idea where you are in the activation? Over.

04 02 33 13
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Roger. We're just sitting around waiting for something to do. We need a state vector, a REFSMMAT, a reading on the AGS. And we need you to watch our DAP load, give a voice check, and throttle check. Over.
04 02 33 34
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger. Eagle, we'll have the state vectors and the REFSMMAT as soon as we get the high gain. Over. It will be about another 10 minutes or so before we get through the P22, and when we maneuver to attitude and get the high gain, we'll have the updates for you. Over.
04 02 33 56
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Roger. We'll go ahead with the DAP and throttle … check if you don't have the gimble drive check, okay?
04 02 34 04
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger. Understand you're going to the DAP throttle check. That's affirmative.
04 02 35 32
Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, Columbia. These T1 and T2 times are still good, aren't they?
04 02 35 37
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Say again. Over.
04 02 35 42
Michael Collins (CMP): I say the T1 and T2 times remain unchanged, don't they?
04 02 35 51
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): That's affirmative. Over.
04 02 35 55
Michael Collins (CMP): Thank you.
04 02 37 58
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Houston, Eagle.
04 02 38 01
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Go ahead, Eagle. Over.
04 02 38 05
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Roger. In the first of—on page 47, step 1, we had the guidance control in PGNS and mode control PGNS AUTO and, of course, the circuit breakers are not in on the thrusters yet. So when we started through the DAP and proceeded on NOUN 46—and we're looking at NOUN 47 now, so we've got an RCS TTA light and we've got four out of the eight other bright colored red flags. I think that this is explained by the fact that we are in PGNS and AUTO and unable to fire the thrusters.

04 02 38 51
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger. Stand by.
04 02 39 13
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Eagle, Houston. You are correct. The lights are there and the flags because we haven't closed the breakers yet. Over.
04 02 39 23
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Roger.
04 02 40 02
Neil Armstrong (CDR): And Houston, Eagle. Are you going to use the high gain before you can look at our GDA position indicator?
04 02 40 12
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Stand by.
04 02 40 35
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Eagle, Houston. We can see all the throttle data —
04 02 40 37
Multiple speakers: I can give high …
04 02 40 40
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Go ahead. Over.
04 02 40 43
Neil Armstrong (CDR): I could give you high bit rate on the OMNI if that would help any.
04 02 40 47
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Negative. We have all the throttle data we need. You can stay low bit rate. You can proceed through the throttle test, but do not do the gimbal trim. Over. Repeat, do not do the gimbal trim.
04 02 41 01
Neil Armstrong (CDR): Roger. Understand.
04 02 41 41
Michael Collins (CMP): Boy, you just can't miss those check points, Diamondback and Sidewinder.
04 02 42 23
Michael Collins (CMP): AUTO optics are pointed just a little bit north of crater 130.
04 02 42 29
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger. Copy, Columbia, Out.
04 02 42 33
Michael Collins (CMP): …
04 02 44 15
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Houston, Eagle. We are ready to pressurize the RCS. Over.
04 02 44 21
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Stand by.
04 02 44 40
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Eagle, Houston. You can go ahead with your RCS pressurization, but we would like to hold off on RCS checkout until we get the high bit rate. Over.
04 02 44 52
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Roger.
04 02 44 54
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): And Eagle, Houston. Have you deployed the landing gear yet? Over.
04 02 44 59
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): That's affirmative. The landing gear is out and …
04 02 45 04
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger.
04 02 45 55
Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, Columbia. I've completed my marks. I've gone ACCEL COMMAND in all three axes to prevent that thruster firing that last time.
04 02 46 03
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger.
04 02 46 49
Michael Collins (CMP): Houston, Columbia. Say again on the necessary data on the downlink. Let me know and I'll proceed.
04 02 46 55
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Columbia, stand by on the NOUN 49. Over.
04 02 47 00
Michael Collins (CMP): Standing by, Houston.
04 02 47 18
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Columbia, Houston. We got your NOUN 49; you can proceed. Over.
04 02 47 23
Michael Collins (CMP): Roger.
04 02 47 38
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Colum—correction, Eagle, Houston. We see the MASTER ARM, you can go ahead and press. We see the press now. Over.
04 02 47 49
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Roger. Looks good.
04 02 47 51
Charlie Duke (CAPCOM): Roger, Buzz. If you've got—would like, I've got your AGS abort constants. Over.
04 02 48 01
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Ready to copy.
