Joe, it appears that the best detent possibly to put the stars in the AOT, would be either number 2 or 4. The rendezvous radar antenna is now in the way. You might think of a procedure to get rid of it with minimum power and then we maybe we'll be able to see stars in a couple of minutes here in a lower detent.
- Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Jim. I think I understood that the rendezvous radar antenna is in the way and you would like a procedure to get it out of the way. Is that right?
- Jim Lovell (CDR)

Go ahead.

Okay. Jim, we have a handover coming up on the hour; that's in a minute and a half. On the hour, we would like you to turn the S-BAND TRANSMITTER/RECEIVER switch to OFF, and 5 minutes later turn it back to PRIMARY. Over.
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Okay, Houston. Shortly you want us to turn the S-BAND TRANSMITTER/RECEIVER to OFF; 5 minutes later, turn it back to PRIMARY.
- Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
That's affirmative, Jim. After the handover apparently they want to make sure that they lockup with you and not the IU.
- Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)

Aquarius, Houston. Copy that. It's noisy on our end, too; stand by while we think about it.

Jim, recommend you push the POWER AMPLIFIER circuit breaker on panel 16 in. Over.
- Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Jim. This is Houston. We recommend that you set the FUNCTION switch from DOWNVOICE BACKUP to VOICE. Over.

The noise we're experiencing is similar to what we had sometime before when you switched stations.
- Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)

Roger, Jim. INCO is checking into what we can do about the noise. It may be a problem with the new site.
