Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Okay. Are you satisfied that the CO2 circuit breaker was in on jettison? Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Roger. On LM jettison, are you satisfied that the CO2 circuit breaker was in? Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Roger. Could you confirm that? I thought there was some question after we got into the command module as to whether that had been left in or not. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger, 11. It was in and confirmed in, and the readings after jettison stayed about 0.1 to 0.2.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Apollo 11, this is Houston. We have not noticed any change in the signal coming through on the LMP's EKG. When he has a little free time, we'd like him to check into it again. Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Roger. I looked at all three of the upper chest center ones, and they appear to be fairly tight. I'll push them back in again. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger. On the TM here, we noticed some fluctuations that may have been attributed to your moving the sensors around or pushing on them, but the erratic problem seems to be persisting.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Houston, Apollo 11. Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Roger. I wonder if you've noticed any change in the BIOMED returns you're getting. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Negative, Buzz. It still looks kind of bad. Apparently, when you move around, it's cutting in and out. Have you checked the little electrical connector where it goes into the signal conditioner? Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Yes. They're all about as tight as can be. I tell you what; I'll take them off and put them back on again and see if that makes any difference.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Okay. If you would, at your convenience, we'll be watching it down here.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Apollo 11, this is Houston. We'd like you to try acquisition on the high gain antenna for us at pitch minus 90, yaw 270. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

11, this is Houston. We're showing about 6.8 percent on waste water on our telemetry now. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay. We've got about 9, up here. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

11, Houston. We're standing by for your burn. Everything's looking good from down here.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Thank you, Bruce. You've got about a minute and 20 seconds.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Houston, do you copy our residuals?

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger. We've got your residual fuel counter reading for us.

Michael Collins (CMP)

That was actually plus 100.2. Okay?

Michael Collins (CMP)

Roger. We're in PTC attitude and would you please give us a call when our thruster activity has subsided sufficiently?

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Apollo 11, this is Houston. We're going to hand over from Madrid to Goldstone at 151 hours even. If you should lose lock on the high gain at this time, you may require at pitch minus 45, yaw 270. Break. We're still watching your rates. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Apollo 11, this is Houston. Over.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

This is 11, Houston.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Apollo 11, this is Houston. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

11, we're still seeing rates on your spacecraft above those we would like for the continuation of the PTC mode which we are still monitoring, and we'll advise you when it has settled down. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Apollo 11, this is Houston. You are go for the spinup on PTC. Over.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Houston, Apollo 11. Over.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Roger. It didn't like it that time. When I got down to the entry 27303 ENTER, it took off in roll at a high rate in excess of 1 degree per second. Over. I've stopped it now, and we are going to have to go back and do it over again. I'd like to try to find out the reason it did that.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger. You might as well start setting up for it, and we will be working the problem here.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Okay. Do you have us on high bit rate here now?
