Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): Roger. The computer is yours now. Looks like you're in VHF range, here. So we'll try a VHF check for you. We'll just send VHF up to you. Stand by.
08 02 12 11
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Okay.
08 02 12 25
Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): Apollo 11, Houston. VHF check on Simplex Alfa. Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Roger, Houston. Apollo 11, VHF Simplex Alfa, loud and clear. How me? Over.
08 02 12 38
Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): Roger, 11. Houston. You're loud. The standard VHF noise, though, makes you realize that S band is good.
08 02 12 48
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Roger. Understand. Thank you.
08 02 13 19
Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): Apollo 11, Houston. Backup S band now, and we're standing by for command module RCS activation.

08 02 17 40
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Roger. Copy MAX g 6.3; R2 at NOUN 60, 6.48; range to go, EMS, 14033; RET V circular, 02 14. Over.

08 02 24 43
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Roger. The first horizon check 194 23 06 at a pitch angle of 298 does not quite fall on the 31 7 line. It's just a little high. It's within 5 degrees tolerance.
08 02 24 57
Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): Apollo 11, Houston. The horizon check there was supposed to be at 33. Over.
08 02 25 05

Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): Apollo 11, Houston. Command module RCS looks fine to us.
08 02 29 05
Neil Armstrong (CDR): Same here, Ron. Looks very good. Doesn't make as much noise as we thought. Some of them are barely audible.
08 02 29 11
Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): Roger.
08 02 29 16
Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): And 11, Houston. Weather still holding real fine in the recovery area.
08 02 29 21
Neil Armstrong (CDR): Roger.
08 02 29 22
Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): Looks like it's about 1500 scattered, high scattered. And it's still 3 to 6 foot waves.
08 02 29 29
Neil Armstrong (CDR): Hey, that part of it sounds good.
08 02 29 33
Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): Roger.

Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): Roger. Well, the time is 36 41. And stand by for some settings.
08 02 32 59
Buzz Aldrin (LMP): Okay. I'll probably only be doing it maybe—part of it at six frames a second, some it at one. So I could be changing settings as it goes through.
08 02 33 09
Ronald Evans (CAPCOM): Roger. Copy.
08 02 33 19
