BUS TIE INVERTER 2. PRO.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Panel 16 verify and select INVERTER 2.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. On CB 11, give me the RENDEZVOUS RADAR breakers, with 30-second spread.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. … at 15, I …

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. … 30 seconds.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Thirty seconds. AC breaker.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Reach up here and give me the … panel …

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Panel 3, check the LGC.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Give me a VERB 41 NOUN 72.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Still going good, right?

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. And they're all zips, 28300.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

It's going now. … signal light.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

… is running away. Docking light.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Command module docking light. Okay. You got them. They're in.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Two RENDEZVOUS RADAR breakers, pull them. … …

Fred Haise (LMP)

CB 16 INVERTER 2 open.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

You know that light on the command module …?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Apollo 13, Houston. Over.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

… get that thing …

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Roger. One correction. We think that the cheapest way for you to maneuver to change attitude is with minimum pulse ACA. That's to do the star mark.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

We had—Okay. As soon as possible we'll get that star data … we can get to maneuver attitude by using TTCA.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

And, just out of curiosity, we got rid of the radar very nicely. It's hanging right in the middle of the—the forward digit is the docking light on the command module. Can you believe that? I don't think it will hurt our Sun check, but it'll sure make P52

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Sorry, Jim, but we are only reading you about 1 by 1.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Look at that big … out there.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

It looks like a piece of wrapping for … line.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

You're watching that. Right?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

It's going to get smaller before it gets larger.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. I guess they can close it.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. Did you read your figures …?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Did you get that or did he give it to you?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. Because I thought he said 2 degrees per second. Like to check on that.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay, Houston; Aquarius.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Jim thinks he heard something different than I copied on the DAP load. Is REGISTER 1 supposed to be 31120?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

That's correct, Fred. That was to be 31120.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

And, Houston, how do you want us to …

Jim Lovell (CDR)

… 3, 2, C and D, 2, 2, 0, … Okay. We're at high bit rate.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. … give … a call.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Well, they probably don't know what to do there.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. And, Houston; Vance.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Just want to get a time check with you. When do you want us to start powering up the ball? We just got to our PTC attitude.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Understand you'd like to know when to power up the -

Jim Lovell (CDR)

We think to take about 15 —

Fred Haise (LMP)

Yes. The ball inside the maneuver, we think it will take us about 15 minutes to get there. We'd like you to confirm that.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

What would that take to use … use the command module or what? To load the PLSS

Fred Haise (LMP)

… … Let's see, about 10 or 11 …

Jim Lovell (CDR)

When is that Sun check time supposed to take place?

Fred Haise (LMP)

74 hours 29 minutes …

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay, Houston; Aquarius. I'd just like to do the little Sun check. Do you want me to do it now?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Jim, Roger. We just came up with a maneuver time of approximately 15 minutes, so if you start any time between now and about the next 2 minutes it would get you into attitude by 73:15. Over.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Roger. We'll start the maneuver at this time. Okay. Let's go.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

If we don't keep working, we'll never develop it.

Fred Haise (LMP)

… now, Power up your FDAI.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Give me 16 … Apparently. … panel 11 …

Fred Haise (LMP)

And on your HA, yaw right side, lift main line … …

Fred Haise (LMP)

Now … 30 second … Okay. Now let's get ready to run this back. …

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. DEADBAND OPTION.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay … on this … vector. Okay, R1 plus 45498 … Okay, plus 190 …, plus 08256. Okay, now we show zips … Okay. VERB 62 ENTER. Okay. … and the main … in AUTO … …

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Houston, are you monitoring our P52 technique?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Roll, yaw, roll, pitch, and yaw.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Jim, that's negative. We don't have any data on you. Low bit rate.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

We don't have high bit rate.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Houston, do you read Aquarius?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Roger. Reading you, Fred. Go ahead.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Go ahead. Houston is reading you.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Reading you loud and clear. Go ahead.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Are you monitoring our P52 technique?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

That's negative, Jim. We do not have high bit rate data on you now. Over.

Fred Haise (LMP)

And be advised, Vance, that we are getting several echos in our COMM downlink here.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Roger. We'll check into it.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

… … and … alinement.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Jim, request you give us high bit rate now. We might be able to fix you up on the 120 antenna.

Fred Haise (LMP)

And, zero, zero, zero.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Fred, we can't lock up on your high bit rate. Request you go back low bit rate.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Hey, we lost you there, Vance.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Roger. Advise, we are not locking up on your high bit rate, so you can go back low bit rate. Over.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Right here, Jim. There it is. Looks like it …

Jim Lovell (CDR)

I don't have all the confidence in the world in this Earth-Sun P52.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

You know how many times I screwed up on my arithmetic.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Yes. Don't count your chickens before they hatch.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

We're … going to be two diameters out, huh?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. Tell me what that technique is to get the lamp on, in case I don't see it.

Fred Haise (LMP)

They'll have to give you AC again and you punch in your breaker -Well, let's see—I've still got HP on for the FDAIs, so you're in business now. All you need is the lamp breaker, the AC BUS A AOT lamp breaker, that is.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Let me know when these start going. There's the Sun. Give me the—Give me the AOT.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Never mind. I don't need it. Go ahead. I got it. Never mind.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Reticle brightness, want it up? Got the reticle?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

I got the reticle …

Fred Haise (LMP)

… Call it, Jack; you can see it better.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

… we got it a great big one.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Yes. I show it about maybe a third of a diameter to the left.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Check your needles. You're off in roll, Jim.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Pitch and yaw are in, but we're off in your roll needle. Better get that …

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. It brings it in. Say when.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. We got it. I think we got it. What diameter was it?

Fred Haise (LMP)

Yes. It's coming back in. Just a second.
