Eagle, Houston. We've lost the high bit rate. Would you please select low bit rate? Over.

Columbia/Eagle, Houston. Three minutes to LOS. Both looking good going over the hill.

And, Columbia, Houston. We expect to lose your high gain sometime during the powered descent. Over.

Roger. The burn was on time. The residuals before nulling: minus 0.1, minus 0.4, minus 0.1, X and Z nulled to zero … nulling …

Columbia, Houston. We've lost all data with Eagle. Please have him reacquire on the high gain, Over.

Eagle, this is Columbia. Houston would like you to reacquire on the high gain. They've lost your data. Over.

Roger. Five by, Neil. We copied up to the AGS residuals. Would you please repeat the AGS residuals in the trim—correction—the Sun check? Over.
- Buzz Aldrin (LMP)
-
Roger. AGS residuals: minus 0.1, minus 0.2, minus 0.7. And we used the PGNS NOUN 86 for DELTA-VZ which was 9.5, versus yours which was 9.1, and I believe that may explain the difference. Apogee 57.2, perilune 9.1, Sun check to three marks, NOUN 20, minus NOUN 22, plus 0.19, plus 0.16, plus 0.11. Over.

Eagle, this is Columbia. Houston lost you again. They're requesting another try at the high gain.
- Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Yes. I don't know what the problem was there. It just started oscillating around in yaw. According to the needle, we're picking up a little oscillation right now, as a matter of fact.

Our radar checks indicate 50,000 foot perilune. Our visual altitude checks steadying out at about 53,000.

And, Houston, we got a 500 alarm early in the program. Went to DESCENT 1, proceeded on it, and we're back at AUTO again. Over.

Eagle, Houston. We recommend you yaw 10 right. It will help us on the high gain signal strength. Over.

Columbia, Houston. We've lost them on the high gain again. Would you please—We recommend they yaw right 10 degrees and reacquire.

Eagle, this is Columbia. You're GO for PDI and they recommend you yaw right 10 degrees and try the high gain again.

I'll leave it in SLEW. Relay to us. See if they have got me now. I've got good signal strength in SLEW.
