Michael Collins (CMP)

On our next pass, I'd appreciate the S band relay mode. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger. We're working on that. There haven't been any transmissions from Tranquility Base since we last talked to you. We cannot give you a full S band relay without being assured of high gain antenna. We're working on the partial relay for you. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay. Understand, Bruce. Thank you very much.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Columbia, this is Houston. Approximately 2 minutes to LOS. All your systems are looking good from down here. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Does it look to you like the 240 controller is properly controlling the glycol evaporator outlet TEMP? It locks all right up here.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger, Columbia. During this pass on the front side, it looked okay to us.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Houston, Tranquility Base.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Okay. We are on about the middle of page 28, Surface—28.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger, Tranquility. We copy

I think we'd … to put …

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Tranquility Base, this is Houston. Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Roger. Go ahead, Houston.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger, Tranquility. We're coming up in about 6 minutes on GET of 108. If you'd like to start your event timer, we can give you a hack at 108 00. Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Houston, Tranquility. We're ready to start with the electrical checkout. We're going to S band modulate FM. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger. Tranquility, this is Houston. We copy. Go ahead with the FM. And we missed the mark at 108. Do you want us to try and give you one at 108 05? Over.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

I think we've got the timer going. We've got 1 minute and 30 seconds.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger. We copy, and you're in SYNC with us.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Feed it, or disconnect, or what?

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Connect PLSS electrical umbilical to PGA.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Let me *** up tight *** have to *** up straight *** up. Got her about ***

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Fastest VOX in the west.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Mark. All right. Okay.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Well, we've got antennas down and *** not real good, is it? Okay. Yours is up. We'll put my antenna up.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Okay. I think that's going to be better.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

You read me all right now?

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Okay. That sounds pretty good.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

I guess it's a combination of the volume and the antenna. May have been just the volume that was way up too high. Why don't you try stowing it again; see if that makes any difference.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

All right. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. That—That sounds pretty good.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Better keep it pretty close to your mouth, though.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Okay. Open up your audio circuit breaker, and disconnect the LM COMM cable.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Columbia, Columbia, this is Houston. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Houston, Columbia on the high gain. How do you read ?

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger, Columbia. Reading you loud and clear on the high gain. We have enabled the one way MSFN relay that you requested. The crew of Tranquility Base is currently donning PLSS's. The LMP has his PLSS on, COMM checks out, and the CDR is checking his COMM out now. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Sounds good. Thank you kindly.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Houston, Columbia. I tweaked the platform up on the back side. I have a P52 option 3 when you're ready to copy the data.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger. Are you reading Tranquility Base now?

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Okay. You've got an O and a P.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

What is your O2 quantity, by the way?

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

O2 quantity is about 91.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Okay, now. I'm going to mode select B.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Okay. How do you read me?

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

You're loud and clear.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

I got another warning tone. Go.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Both. That's mode select AR.
