Okay, Fred. We're going to try to refrain from calling you from now on, so that you can maybe get a couple of winks. We're getting a status around the room first, to see if anybody has any comments for you and, after that, we'll try to leave you alone for awhile.
-
Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. We polled the room. We don't have much for you. Only comments as follows: your consumables are looking good; your entry gamma right now is minus 6.01. We're expecting a midcourse of 2.81 foot per second which should be about 21 seconds of RCS.

Aquarius, Houston. Request you open the POWER AMPLIFIER circuit breaker and DOWN VOICE BACKUP, please.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Fred, in a couple of minutes we're going to hand over the Honeysuckle, so there'll be—Our uplink will be terminated. We'll contact you when we get it back.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. We want to get some ranging data on you for about 15 minutes. So close the POWER AMPLIFIER circuit breaker and go to NORMAL VOICE, please.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Okay. You're coming through good now, Fred. I've got three DELTAs to the checklist. They're minor changes. I'd like to pass them along now. One of them is to the CSM checklist. So if you'll pick that up, I'll give it to you.

Is it the one Jack wrote them all in? The big long readout? He also wrote something in the G&N book.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
It's in the big, long one he wrote out at about EI minus 02:30. EMS entry check.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Okay, Houston; Aquarius.

Okay, Jack. The time line between EI minus 02:30 and 1 hour is real crowded, so you're really going to have to hustle, and we've decided to delete the EMS entry check at minus 02:30. That'll give you a little more time in there. What we've decided to do with it is wait until after EI minus 1, just before you initialize the EMS. If you have time, and only if you have time, do the EMS entry check. Otherwise, forget it and go right on into EMS initialization. You understand?
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Okay. You're going to delete between 2 hours and 30 minutes and 02:15 there, and you're going to add it, if there is time, only if there is time, at EI minus 1 hour where the EMS initialization occurs .
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
That's right. You got it correctly. Okay, Jack. One other item. Just before EI minus 2 hours and 15 minutes, we need an E-memory dump VERB 74 ENTER. Over.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Okay. Right before 2 hours and 15 minutes, I assume that's before MSFN gives their P27 update, I do a VERB 74. Right?
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Oh, I guess—Stand by. I guess maybe 2 or 3 hours. It was awful cold, and it wasn't very good sleep.
