Spacelog Apollo 13

Roger. Reading you, Fred. Go ahead.

Go ahead. Houston is reading you.

Houston, Aquarius.

Reading you loud and clear. Go ahead.

Are you monitoring our P52 technique?

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

Okay. Thank you.

Roger.

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

Roger. We'll check into it.

… … and … alinement.

Apollo 13, Houston.

Go ahead, Houston.

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

Okay. High bit rate.

Roger.

And, zero, zero, zero.

Yes.

Apollo 13, Houston.

Go ahead.

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

Hey, we lost you there, Vance.

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

Low bit rate.

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

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

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

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

Listen, I'm not.

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

Yes.

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

They'll have to give you AC again and you punch in your breaker -Well, let's see—I've still got H_P 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.

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

…

Okay.

… …

… we got it a great big one.

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

Okay. Take a look.

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

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

Okay. It brings it in. Say when.

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

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