CC: Apollo 15, Houston through Carnarvon. Over.
CDR: Roger, Houston, 15. You're loud and clear.
CDR: Okay; the insertion checks are coming along very nicely. We're down through - 21 in the checklist. And the cameras are out, and Al's completed his alinement.
CDR: And I only got one comment Jim's got for you.
LMP: Houston - Houston, 15. On the H2 purge, fuel cell 2, I cannot confirm since I had no - no read-out of a flow indication, or a caution and warning associated with that flow.
LMP: And, if you'd like, I could do it any time, and perhaps you could confirm it.
LMP: Houston, fif-
CC: This is Houston. We're unable to help you on confirming that purge down here, Jim.
LMP: Okay; understand.
CMP: Gordo, this is Al. I've got some numbers on the P52 for you.
CMP: Okay. Used stars 33 and 41. NOUN 05 was plus 000.01. And the torquing angles were minus 00.019, plus 00.021, minus 00.061, and -- they were torqued out at 50 minutes.
CC: Roger. Copied. And the torquing angles are minus 00.019, a plus 00.021, and a minus 00.061° Ove r.
CDR: And, Houston, one other comment. Apparently some- time during launch, the RCS B secondary propellant isolation valve closed, and we recycled it and got a gray t-l_back.
CC: Apollo 15, Houston. About 15 seconds to LOS. Estimating United States at 1:30 GET.
CDR: Roger. 1:30. STATESIDE PASS (REV 1)
CDR: Hello, Houston, 15.
CC: Would you put the - You're loud and clear, Dave. Would you put the IU UP TEL to ACCEPT, please?
CDR: IU UP TEL, ACCEPT.
CC: Okay; we're going to update the IU NAV vector based on tracking at Carnarvon. We'11 have you leave that in ACCEPT all the way through the States pass. When we get a better track here across the states, we'11 update it again - before the end. Over.
CDR: Okay; will do. And we're down through 27 on the checklist. The docking probe is out. Looks good. And standing by for a sequence arm and a logic check when you're ready.
CDR: Roger. We can do that now.
CDR: Okay. LOGIC l, on, down. LOGIC 2, on, down.
CC: Logics are good. You're GO for pyro arm.
CDR: Okay; and we had one other little one. At about an hour, we noticed that the primary and secondary propellant isolation valves on QUAD Delta were barber pole. We cycled the switch, and they are now gray. And the RCS checks okay.
CC: Roger. I have a TLI plus 90 and lift-off plus 8 abort pads when you're ready.

CC: Okay, readback's correct, Jim.
CC: 15, Houston. We have a question regarding the primary and secondary isolation valve. Over.
CC: We're wondering if you happened to just notice them - barber pole at 1 hour, or did you notice them close at 1 hour? Over.
CDR: No, no. We Just noticed that they were closed at an hour. Apparently in the shuffle here, somebody probably bumped the one switch, which would do it.
CC: Roger. You don't - you can't tie them to any other action or event there then? Is that right?
CC: Okay; thank you.
CC: 15, Houston. IU UP TEL to BLOCK. We have put in a second IU NAV vector based on stateside data.
CDR: UP TEL to BLOCK.

CDR: Copy 8 degrees. --
CC: One more on the cue card for TLI down slightly below the middle, the long cue card that the CDR uses at 54 minutes. The 24 degrees should be 300/LUNAR, changed to 25 degrees. ORDEAL 25 degrees. Page 11
CDR: Okay, we've got that; 25 degrees.
CC: And then there will be a 1-degree difference on the rest of the ORDEAL numbers.
CDR: Okay; looks like they all fit.

CDR: Okay, Gordo. Got the ... for you ...
CDR: Roger, Gordo. I've got to cut off residuals when you're ready to copy.
CDR: Okay. We cut off on a V I of 35614. TFC was plus 02; VG was .o. 05; DELTA-V C ... minus ... 4.5 ... H-dot ... and altitude is 167.4.
CC: 15, Houston. Most of your readback is blocked by static. Let's wait a little while and try it again. _
CDR: Okay, Gordo.
CDR: And, Houston, we have the S-IVB in ORB RATE.
CC: Roger. You're loud and clear now.
CDR: Okay. -_
CDR: Okay, Houston. I've got the data if you want to copy.
CC: Okay. Sounds good now. Go ahead again.
CDR: Okay. DSKY was 35599; VG plus 145; and a DELTA-Vc, minus 14.9; TFC, plus .02. And, for your informa- tion, the H-dot was 4353 and the H was 167.4 at cut-off.
CC: Roger. Say again what that figure plus 02 was?
CDR: Yes. TFC.
CC: Roger. Okay. Copied all that. And, for your information, the maneuver to the TD&E attitude should start about 1 second earlier than the flight plan; 3:10:53.
CDR: Roger. 3:10:53.
CC: Everything looks good here. You're GO for trans- position and docking.
CDR: Roger. GO for a transposition and docking.
CDR: Okay, Houston, 15; 30 seconds.
CDR: Okay, Houston; we got a good SEP.
CDR: And PRIME PROPELLANT B SECONDARY and Delta PRIME and SECONDARY with barber pole, and they're both in gray, now - reset.
CC: 15, Houston. Would you give us OMNI Bravo?
CDR: Okay, Houston. Looks like you've got a good LM in there, and we're rolling now, and the opening rates are stopped, and you should have a TV.
CC: Goldstone is receiving the carrier, but we're not getting any signal on the carrier for the TV. Over.
CDR: Okay; we've got a good picture on the monitor up here.
CC: 15, Houston; we're getting a picture now, and the LM is coming in the lower right-hand corner of our field of view. --
CDR: Okay, Houston. It looks like we have a good high-gain antenna. Do you want us to give you the high gain or stay on the OMNI?
CC: We'11 _ake the high gain, Dave.
CDR: Roger. Going HIGH GAINo
CDR: Okay, Houston. We're in AUTO and NEDIUM. Looks like we got a good locko
CC: Roger; and we're getting a very good picture here. It's - it's over on the right-hand side of the field of view.
CC: 15, Houston. Request WIDE BEAM width, please.
CDR: WIDE BEAM.
CC: 15, Houston° The centering on the picture is good now, and we're getting an excellent quality picture.
CDR: Very good. We're almost there.
CDR: Capture.
CDR: We're retracting.
CMP: Hard dock, Houston.
CC: Roger° ~
CDR: Okay, Houston, 15.
CDR: Okay; that all went fairly nominally, and the only different thing we've noticed is the SPS THRUST light on the EMS is now on. And we don't know when it came on; somewhere in the process here.
CC: Roger. Understand the SPS THRUST light is on.
CDR: And all the switches are off.
CC: 15, Houston. We'd like you to pull both SPS PILOT VALVE circuit breakers on panel 8,
CDR: Okay; that's being done. They're both open.
CMP: Houston, 15. Go ahead.
CC: At 3:55:54 - about 40 seconds - nonpropulsive vent will be opened on the booster.
CDR: Roger, Gordo. Understand.
CC: Apollo 15, Houston. The vent should be complete now.
CDR: Okay; understand.
CMP: Roger, Gordo. We're ready to get the pyro arm and logics on now.
CDR: Okay, logics coming on; LOGIC l; LOGIC 2.
CC: You're GO for pyro arm,
CDR: Okay, Houston; we'11 SEP at 4:18.
CDR: Okay, Houston; 15. We have the S-IVB in sight, and it looks like it's probably about - oh 7 or 800 feet away.
CC: Go ahead, 15.
CDR: Roger. We have the S-IVB in sight, and it looks like it's 500 feet or so away.
CC: Roger. We copied the first time. If it's okay with you and looks clear, we'11 command the yaw maneuver.
CDR: Roger. It - it looks like a clean bird out there.
CC: Roger. We'11 be sending the yaw command at 4:31.
CDR: Okay. We can see the thruster activity on the S-IVB.
CDR: It looks like a light mist and a sort of conical shape, maybe - oh, 100 feet long or so.
CC: Roger. the Falcon has his Rover aboard.
CDR: As we watch the S-IVB drift away here, how about passing along to Jim Harrington at the Cape con- gratulations from the crew to the launch team for a superior Job.
CC: Okay. We sure will. and
CDR: Smooth all the way, right on time.
CC: Gerry Griffin reports that he's already done that.
CC: But we'11 second it from the crew.
CC: I was thinking about your SPS-THRUST-ON-light prob- lem, and we'd like you to verify the positions of the EMS FUNCTION and MODE switches.
CMP: Roger. OFF and STANDBY.
LMP: Houston, this is 15. We're starting to configure for charging battery B.
CC: I think you may have missed a VERB 66 - right there Just after LM ejection. We need one now.
CDR: Roger. In works.
CDR: And, Houston, 15. The S-IVB looks nice and stable out there. You're GO for your basic maneuver as far as we're concerned.
CC: Okay; fine. We - were Just about to ask you on that.
CC: It'11 be started at 4:40.
CDR: Roger; 4:40. And we're Just about 90 degrees abeam.
CDR: Okay, Houston. We see the S-IVB moving very slowly.
LMP: Houston, this is 15.
LMP: Do you want us to terminate the charge when - when I'm reading 39.5?
CC: Stand by. Jim, we'11 call you, based on inte- grated amp-hours that we figure out down here.
LMP: Okay; fine°
CC: Go ahead. LM/CM
CDR: Okay; we have a DELTA-P of plus .2 at the present time.
CC: Roger, Dave. Plus .2.
CC: We need to have you're - reinitialize the HIGH GAIN. We'd like you to set PITCH, minus 30; YAW, plus 98; and go to REACQ. Over.
CMP: Roger. We copied minus 30 and plus 98.
CMP: Houston, 15. How do you read?
CC: 15, Houston. Watch your middle gimbal.
CC: At 5:01:20, we'11 be starting a LOX dump through the S-IVB engine. And we have the REFSMMAT when you're ready for it - for the P52.
CMP: Okay. You want POO and ACCEPT?
CC: 15, Houston. The computer's yours. You have a new REFSMMAT, and the trunnion bias has been zeroed.
CMP: Roger, Gordo. Thank you.
CC: When you get a free moment, we have a reasonably short procedure in aline with checking out the SPS THRUST light. Over.
LMP: Go ahead, Gordo. We're ready to copy.
CC: Okay. We see you're starting the P52. This shouldn't interfere, but it - We can wait if you wish.
LMP: I'm Just going to copy the procedure, and we'11 do it later.
CC: Okay. It's - it's the kind of thing we have to watch on the ground as you do it, so it's probably not even worth writing down.
LMP: Okay. Let's wait then until after P52.
UNKNOWN: Houston, 15.
LMP: Okay, Gordo. If you're reading, I've got the gyro torquing angles up, and I'11 torque them out at 5:30.
CC: 0kay_ we're reading the DSKY. Understand 5:30.
CC: Apollo 15, Houston. Standing by with a lift-off plus 15 abort pad.
LMP: Okay, Gordo. I'm standing by for the pad.
CC: Okay. It's GET of ignition of 015:00; DELTA-VT, 4926; minus 175_ 051:20. Go ahead.
LMP: All rights Gordo, give me that - It's a P37 pad that you have there?
CC: That's right, Jim. Sorry, I should have used that terminology.
CC: Okay; 015:00 s time of ignition; 4926; longitude is minus 175, and GET for 400K is 051:20. Over.
LMP: I copied 015:00_ 4926, minus 175, 051:20.
CC: That's corrects Jim.
CC: 15, Houston. When you - when y'all get a chance, we'd like to go with this SPS-THRUST-light check.
CMP: Okay, Gordo. I'm over in the left couch now_ let's go ahead and try it.
CC: Okay. Stand by; I'11 get everybody watching. Okay. First of all, I'd like to be sure that both the PILOT VALVE circuit breakers on panel 8 and both DELTA-V THRUST switches are OFF - both circuit breakers.
CMP: Okay, Houston. Both PILOT VALVES are open, and the DELTA-V thrust switches are OFF.
CC: Okay. Now when we do the following steps, we'd like you to watch the SPS THRUST light, and watch it for changes either going out or changes in in- tensity. We're trying to determine if it's a high- resistance or a iow-resistance short, and if it gets brighter, that'11 tell us something about this short with any one of these actions.
CC: Okay. First item is put the thrust hand controller clockwise, and watch for light.
CMP: Gordo, do you mean the the, the translation hand controller?
CC: Roger. That's what I meant. the, clockwise.
CMP: Okay. We'11 go clockwise with it. We're clock- wise, and no change.
CC: Okay. Put the the back to neutral.
CC: Okay. SPS THRUST switch, DIRECT ON.
CMP: Okay. SPS THRUST, DIRECT ON.
CC: And any change in the light?
CMP: I didn't see any change. And it's OFF.
CC: Okay. Back to NORMAL.
CMP: Roger. Back to NORMAL.
CC: Okay. We'd like you to do the first part of an EMS DELTA-V check - from page G/2-5 and Just the first steps - down to the - don't have to do the bias check, but the first six steps there.
CC: Idea here is to check for a possible short in the DELTA-V test circuits. It might be causing the light on.
CMP: Okay, Gordo. That part of the check's been run and shut off at a minus 21.4 in 10 seconds, and the SPS light - the SPS THRUST light got distinctly brighter during the decelerat - or during the ac- celeration period.
CC: Roger, Al. Copy. And I'11 see if there's any- thing else they want to do here.
CC: Okay, Al. I guess no more questions right now. We'11 mull that over a little bit.
CC: Apollo 15, Houston_
CC: I've got a short update for your erasable load update as contained in the back of the G&C Checklist. Three num- three addresses to update. Over.
CDR: Okay; go ahead.
CC: Turn to page G/9-4.
CMP: Okay, Gordo_ go ahead. I got the G&C Checklist out now.
CC: Okay; on that 9-4, the first one is changing NBD-X, the static drift compensation for the X-gyro. Under load Alfa_ the octal ID number 1i, which now reads 77332, change that to 00377. Over.
CMP: Understand. That's Alfa octal ID 11, where it now says 77332, change that to read 00377.
CC: That's affirmative. And load Bravo, IDs 4 and 5 are changed. This changes T to correspond ephem with actual lift-off. And load 4, which is now 30560, change that to 32251. And while you're still writing, change the next one, load - or ID number 5, from 10000 to 26157.
CMP: Roger; understand. That's column Bravo, IDs 4 and 5, change 4 to 32251, and 5 to 26157.
CC: That's correct_ That's - that takes care of it, Al.
CMP: Okay°
CDR: Houston, 15. Go.
CC: If you're not using the optics, we suggest you zero them; they're - We notice them drifting.
CDR: We've been taking turns looking at the Earth through the telescope. It's a fantastic sight.
CDR: As a matter of fact, this sure would be a neat place for a space station out here.
CC: Apollo 15, this is Houston.
CDR: Hello, Houston, Apollo 15. Go.
CC: Hey, the results that we got out of that last test procedure - didn't solve many problems for us. I guess the best we found out was that we don't have a simple problem like a stuck EMS relay. And there's a lot of thinking going on down here, and at the present time, we line up three - three possibilities, depending on where the ground is in the system. And the first one is that it's still a ground that simply turns on the light and affects nothing else. Second possibility, that it's a ground that's going to light the engine early when you put on the DELTA-V THRUST switches. And there's a third possibility, that the - the ground is upstream of the pilot valves, and that we'11 bro - we'11 blow the PILOT VALVE circuit breakers and lose that bank, if - if we're unlucky. We're busy down here working on a procedure that we could use at midcourse correction i to decide which - which of these three possibilities is the right one. And we're talking about getting this all worked out and sent up to you in about 2 hours.
CDR: Okay; understand. Good luck.
CC: Righto.
CDR: Houston, this is 15.
CC: 15, this is Houston.
CDR: You have down a null bias check. DELTA-V with .9. Over.
CC: Roger. We read DELTA-V, .9.
CC: We're seeing a low 02 repress package pressure down here. Okay; we'11 take that back. We have a suspicion that we have a low 02 repress package, and I would like to have an onboard read-out of your pressure there.
CDR: Houston, it is a little low. We just never finished filling it after we pressurized the tunnel.
CC: They say they'd like to go to fill now and get it filled up.
CDR: Roger. We'11 do that. 7/1 Tape
LMP: Houston, 15. Go.
CC: Hey, would you ask A1 to give us about 3 seconds on the NOUN 49, so we can read them out down here?
CC: Oh, very well.
CC: 15, this is Houston with an update for your procedures for UV photos.
CMP: Stand by 2.
LMP: And, Houston, that last NOUN 49 looked like 60 and 16.
LMP: Houston, we have - -
LMP: ... NOUN 49 looked like ...
CMP: Houston, this is 15. Ready on that update con- cerning the UV photos.
CC: Roger. On page 3-15 in the Flight Plan, in the left column, about the 17th line down, we have two frames with filter number 2.
CMP: I found that line.
CC: Roger. And instead of two frames at 20 seconds, we would like one frame at 20 seconds; and we would like a second frame at 2 seconds.
CMP: Roger. I copy one at 20 seconds and one at 2 seconds.
CC: Roger. The reason for that is that they have recently - measured a secondary light leak in that filter, and they need a- two different exposures like this to really separate the two peaks in the filter transmissivity. Incidentally, this is going to pertain to all the UV Earth photography of the on down the line, but we'11 - we'11 update it as we come to them.
CC: And, 15. We have a - perm - a preliminary procedure about to come up to you to see if we can ground and isolate whether this the SPS system is in bank A or bank B. And that'11 be coming up in Just a few minutes. We - -
CMP: Okay. I understand.
CC: And we would like to do that before we start the UV photography.
CC: 15, this is Houston. I have the preliminary procedure I spoke about, and we're hoping you might be able to do it while A1 works with the P23.
LMP: Okay; go ahead.
CC: You might refer, if you want to see what's going on, to drawing 8.9 down in area E-B. We're playing with the - DELTA-V THRUST switch, and the idea is this. First of all, let's open the - the GROUP 5 circuit breakers on panel 229, both MAIN A and MAIN B. That's a backup to the SPS PILOT VALVES on PANEL 8, which we also want open. Verify that.
LMP: Okay. GROUP 5, MAIN A and MAIN B on 229. Stand by.
LMP: Both are open.
CC: Roger. We've verified GROUP 5, both open; and the SPS PILOT VALVES, both open. Then, we'd like to take the DELTA-V THRUST A switch and try to balance it right in a center position. Tease it back and forth a little bit - to see if you can get any flickering in the SPS THRUST - THRUST-ON light.
CC: Jim - Let's - let's hold up a little bit before we do that. We don't - We're not all set up down here to watch that also. So let's - let's read on through the procedure.
CC: If the light does flicker, of course, that's going to isolate, in this case, if we were playing with - with the DELTA-V THRUST A switch. That'11 isolate the problem into the - to the A bank of valves. If we don't see any flicker, then we'11 go ahead and try it with the - with the B bank. Actually, we would like to go ahead and do it with the B bank also. So, stand by.
LMP: Okay. I understand. Standing by.
CC: We'd like to have a HIGH GAIN, MEDIUM.
LMP: HIGH GAIN, MEDIUM.
CC: 15, this is Houston. We're ready to go ahead. Verify again the GROUP 5 breakers and the SPS PILOT VALVE breakers, and then let's tease that DELTA-V THRUST A switch. Try to balance it in the central position.
LMP: Okay. Will do. We ~ we note that trying 8.9 Echo 3 doesn't seem to ... what you're doing.
CC: Actually, it's area Echo 3 and 4, and it simply shows you the DELTA-V THRUST switches there.
LMP: Oh, okay. Okay.
CC: The light has a contact, whether that switch is on or OFF, and we would like to balance it halfway between, so that we don't have a contact.
LMP: Okay. Here goes DELTA-V A now. Okay A is up and on, and the SPS THRUST light is off.
CC: Would you confirm that the DELTA-V THRUST A switch is up and the light went out. Is that correct?
LMP: That's correct. It's still in the up and on position, and when I went to the on position, the light went out.
LMP: I'11 just leave it there while you think about it. --
CC: Thank you. Read. Stand by.
CC: 15, this is Houston. We'd like to feel our way ahead here, and we'd like to have you put DELTA-V THRUST - A back to OFF.
LMP: A is OFF, and the light remains off.
CC: 15, this is Houston. Our telemetry confirms both of your observations, and we would now like to have you cycle Bravo.
LMP: Roger. Bravo is up and on; the light is off. Now Bravo is OFF, and the light remains off.
CC: 15, we'11 sit tight and think about that for a while. Thank you.
CC: 15, this is Houston. As a final check as to what's happening in that switch, we'd like to have you tap around the DELTA-V THRUST switches a bit. See if any light flickering comes on.
LMP: Roger. In work. Would you believe, it came on!
CC: We copy, and we saw it down here. Okay. With the light on now. Let's cycle Bravo on and try to tease it in the middle if it stays on.
LMP: Okay. Cycling Bravo.
LMP: Okay. No change at all with the Bravo on, cycling several times through the middle.
CC: We copy. Okay. Leave Bravo OFF, and let's cycle A again.
LMP: Okay. Right in the center of - the contacts with A, right between the two, I can get the light to go out. But now, when I go on up - up and on, the light comes on again. And now, I've come back to the OFF position, and the light's off. So, I think you've isolated your problem.
CC: 15, this is Houston. We're willing to stop playing with the - with the light problem at the present time. We'd like to verify that both DELTA-V THRUST switches are OFF. And we'd like to have the GROUP 5 circuit breakers both closed, but please keep the PILOT VALVE circuit breakers open.
CDR: Okay. DELTA-V THRUST verified OFF. PILOT VALVES verified open, and we'11 close the GROUP 5.
CDR: OMNI Delta, please.
CC: Roger. OMNI Delta.
CDR: ..., 15.
CC: Let's - summarize our situation with that - with that THRUST ON light. The telemetry we got down here - we actually have two lights which show up in in that area, E-4 and 5 on diagram 8.9 - gave us some rather confusing data that we don't understand yet, but we'11 be working on it. But we - we do feel confident enough that there's no need to fire the engine at the present time, and since the midcourse 1 is a correction of 2.8 feet per second, we don't think that we'11 be having a midcourse 1. For your information, at the present time, mid- course 2 looks about like 5.0 feet per second.
CDR: Okay; understand. We'11 Just hold tight; skip midcourse 1; stand by for 2.
CC: Roger. And, 15, be advised we'11 have a Flight Plan update in the near future.
CDR: Roger. That was a pretty good S-IVB, wasn't it!
CC: Hey, and you can tell A1 up there that those look like real good P23 markings.
CDR: Okay. He's glad to hear that.
CMP: Very good, Karl.
CC: 15, if you'11 give us ACCEPT, we'11 send up a new state vector.
CC: Say again, 15.
CC: 15, you can have your computer back.
CC: We'd like to have OMNI Bravo, please.
LMP: Houston, 15.
LMP: Roger, Karl. Would you go back and recheck the attitude - the attitude for the - UV - pictures - pictures of the Moon?
CC: Stand by. We'11 check that. The numbers you have in the DSKY are what we have in the Flight Plan.
LMP: Houston, 15. As you were on that. Looks like we're all set up.
CC: 15, this is Houston. Could we bring up the HIGH GAIN with the angles in the Flight Plan?
LMP: Roger, Houston. Stand by.
CC: 15, this is Houston. I have a Flight Plan update whenever you can copy it - to be followed by a P27 update and P37 block data. Tap_- 7/7
LMP: Okay, Karl. I'm ... you a Flight Plan.
CC: Okay. As is obvious, you can delete all of the midcourse activities, beginning there at 11:21, running through the burn status report. And the can other activities this evening be moved up so that you can go to bed as early as 12 hours GET, if you wish. A couple of notes here that we do want you to stay up until 12 hours in order that we can finish a battery charge that's in progress. And_ also_ that waste water dump; be sure to - to do the water dump before you start PTC.
LMP: Okay. We understand that.
CC: And, I'm - I've got a P37 for you - plus 25 hours, if you're ready.
LMP: ... I'm ready for the P37 ...hours.
CC: Roger. 025:00, 4621, minus 175_ 075:21; 035:00, 6821, minus 174, 074:51; 045:00, 5605, minus 175, 099:06; 060:00, 5448, minus 175, 123:06. And that's the end. APOLLO 15 AIR-TO-GROUND VOICE TRANSCRIPTION
CMP: Readback. 025:00, 4621, minus 175, 075.21; 035:00, 6821, minus 174, 074:51; 045:00, 56:05, minus 175, 099:06; 060:00, 5448, minus 175, 123:06.
CC: That's all correct. The next one I have is a P27 update.
LMP: Okay; I'm ready on the P27.
CC: Roger. It's - the purpose, V71; GET 11:45:00; INDEX 21, 01501, 00001, 71465, 41437, 76654, 45425, 77003, 52553, 72602, 54007, 75455, 55217, 76267, 55324, 00402, 05560, and that's all.
LMP: Okay. On the P27s; 71, 11:45:00; 21, 01501, 00001, 71465, 41437, 76654, 45425, 77003, 52553, 72602, 54007, 75455, 55217, 76267, 55324, 00402, and 05560.
CC: That's all correct. Thank you, Jim.
CMP: Houston - Houston, 15.
CMP: Roger, Karl. We've got the gyro torquing angles for the P52, and we'11 torque them out on the minute.
CC: Roger. We've copied them.
LMP: And, Houston, this is 15 now. Looking at the OXIDIZER PRESSURE on the SPS, looks like it's a little low; I just wondered what you all are reading down there.
CC: 15, this is Houston. We're reading a pressure of 168 down here on the SPS OXIDIZER and that's normal at this time. We expect it to be a bit low because of absorption in the helium.
LMP: Okay; thank you.
CC: And, 15, this is Houston. When you doff your biomed harnesses, we'd very much like to have you double check those sensors. We've been getting poor readings in respiration from all three of you, and anomalies we'd like to have you report any in - in how they're rigged on you.
CDR: Roger. We'11 do that.
CC: You could send that down with the evening report.
CC: 15, this is Houston. Anytime you have the time to copy down six lines of information, I could give you a general update on the UV filter photography.
CMP: Okay; stand by 1, Karl.
CC: And, 15, we'd like to have you verify that the waste-water dump has been terminated.
CMP: That's a verify.
LMP: Okay, Karl; I'm ready to copy Flight Plan change relative to the UV.
CC: Roger. The change is the same as I gave you be- fore. When you're shooting the Earth, two frames with filter 2, at - what was formerly two frames with filter 2, exposure time 20 seconds, in the future, it will be one frame, filter 2 with an exposure time of 20 seconds. And one frame, filter 2, exposure time 2 seconds. And the following is a - places that this occurs in the Flight Plan in the future. First is page 3-38, line 17. I believe we've probably passed that one already. The next one is - Negative, we haven't passed that one yet. The next one is page 3-57, line 16. The third is page 3-167 - both at 123 hours 49 minutes and 123 hours 56 minutes. The next is page 3-352, line 16. The next is page 3-378, line 16, and the final one is page 3-402 parenthesis, it says here, Earth UV, line 16.
LMP: Roger. I copied all that, Karl.
CC: 15, this is Houston. Go ahead.
CMP: Okay, Karl. Would you check the page for PTC, and let me know what that VERB 49 attitude is? It says, VERB 49 maneuver to PTC, NOUN 20, 090 and 000.
CC: 15, this is Houston. I understand that you used the present roll. The one you have now, I Le!ieve, is 169.6 and, then, the other two numbers give you pitch and yaw.
CMP: Affirm. Roger, Karl; thank you.
CMP: And, Houston, 15; we're maneuvering to PTC atti- tude now.
CC: Roger, 15. We copy. LM/CM
CC: 15, this is Houston. We'd like to have a DELTA-P whenever you can cheek that number for us?
LMP: Okay, Houston; the DELTA-P is point - plus .4 and we're going to secure the high gain and give you OMNI Bravo.
CC: Roger, 15; we copy.
LMP: And, Houston, we're doing an 02 purge on the fuel cell, presently purging fuel cell 3, and I'm getting a FUEL CELL 3 caution light.
CC: 15, this is Houston; we'd like to have OMNI Charlie.
CMP: Houston, 15. Say again your last.
CC: Roger. That last comment was to give us OMNI Charlie.
CMP: Roger. Charlie.
CDR: Houston, 15; go ahead.
CC: Your spacecraft rates are iow enough now to spin up for PTC, but we'd like for you to verify first that all of your dumping has been finished.
CDR: Karl, we'11 hold off for a little bit here and finish up the dumping before we go into PTC.
CC: 15, this is Houston. In connection with the res- piration sensor problem, we'd like for you to - go through a special procedure for us before you - you - you doff your biomed harnesses.
CDR: Okay. Stand by l, Karl.
CDR: Okay, Houston; ready to copy special procedure.
CC: I'm sorry. I didn't - I don't think it needs copying, but we'd like all three of you - when you go into the doffing phase here, we'd like all three of you to pull off the impedance pneumograms. Those are the two respiration sensors back on your kidneys there. Pull them off, and let any - let any trapped air get out, and then reseal them and give us a couple of minutes of read-out down here to see if that improves the situation.
CC: 15, this is Houston. We can terminate the battery Bravo charging.
CMP: Houston, this is 15. We've terminated the charge on battery B.
CC: Roger, 15. We copy.
CMP: Okay, Karlos. Looks like we're getting organized, and we'11 go ahead with the PTC now. Do you have any preference on which jets to use?
CC: Roger. We'd like to have you use the B/D jets.
CMP: Understand; B/Ds. I guess that would be B-2, D-2, huh?
CMP: Guess that means you want us to use B-2 and D-2, h_l?
CC: That's affirmative. And we'd llke you to - to hold the spinup until we - Okay; we're able to give you a GO for spinup now.
CMP: Okay; understand the rates are favorable for a spinup DAP.
CMP: Okay, Karl, this is Apollo 15. If the rates still look good down there, we're ready to go to PTC.
CC: That's affirmative, Al. Go ahead and spin her up.
CC: We'd like to select OMNI Bravo now.
CMP: Roger, Houston. OMNI Bravo.
CC: 15, this is Houston. How's the view up there?
CMP: Houston, 15. It is fantastic, Karl. You ought to be here, man.
CC: I'm eating my heart out.
CDR: Karl, I think you said that just to be mean.
CC: And how does 13 hours of continuous zero g feel?
CDR: Well, I think everybody is pretty well adjusted, Karl; no problems at all, and we've finished din- ner and we're happy.
CC: 15, this is Houston. On your PTC, when it -- started out, it looked okay; but we find that it's diverging now, and we're going to have to reini- tialize it. We suggest that this time around that we use a - a rate of .375 in NOUN 79. That might help.
CDR: Okay; .375 in NOUN 79.
CDR: Roger, Karl. When the rates look like they're down again, we'11 try PTC again.
CC: Roger. We'd like to have you verify that all the vents are secured before we spin it up again.
CDR: In work.
CC: And, 15, in this damping process, we'd like to make sure that all of the jets on two adjacent quads are disabled.
CDR: And Roger. It's in work.
CC: And, 15, as a part of trying to figure out what went wrong with that first PTC, we'd like to know whether or not you went into any exercise period after - after we spun it up.
CDR: That is negative, Karl.
CDR: And, Houston, the LMP and CDR have recycled their impedance pneumograms. You can give us a word if you see - if you see any improvement in data.
CC: Dave, we missed that last transmission. Could you say again?
CDR: Roger. The LMP and CDR have recycled the impedance pneumogram, and we Just wondered if you'd seen any improvement in data.
CC: Okay; he's looking at it now, and he says, yes, it has improved.
CC: 15, the Surgeon says it's okay for the CDR and the CMP to doff their biomed harnesses now. Thank you.
CDR: Did that - did that recycling do any good?
CC: Roger. The recycling cleared up the respiration data we have down here very nicely.
CC: 15, this is Houston. Everything down here looks good for the spinup.
CMP: Okay, Karl. We'11 spin them up then.
CC: 15, this is Houston. I'm sorry to tell you that that spinup didn't work very well. We're going to have to reinitialize again.
CMP: Okay, Houston. We'11 try it again.
CC: And, Al, the - Stand by.
CMP: Roger, Karl. Hey, Houston, 15.
CMP: Yes, Karl, I think if there was a problem that time, it was because I hesitated just momentarily, thinking I had it FREE, and I ended up in HOLD. thanks
CC: Thanks; for the information.
CC: And, 15, we think that your jet configurations were all okay that time around, but we'd like to confirm that, during damping, you disable all jets on two adjacent quads, and then for the spinup, you use only B-2 and D-2.
CMP: That's affirm, Houston; that's affirm.
CC: 15, this is Houston. Everything down here looks GO for the spinup. Karl.
CDR: Okay, We'11 try it once more.
CC: 15, that looked like a very good start.
CMP: Okay, Karl.
CC: It looks like we've got it pretty well wrapped up for your rest period. We've got three or four small items to remind you here. Crew status re- port is outstanding; onboard read-outs, we'd like; and whenever you're ready, we're ready for an E-memory dump.
CDR: Okay. We're about at that point of the checklist, and we'11 give you the whole page at one time. Stand by 1.
CDR: Okay, Houston, 15. We're ready for the E-memory dump for you, if you're ready.
CC: Okay, 15. We're ready to go with it.
CDR: Okay, here it comes.
CDR: And, Houston, 15. We've got the rest of the pre- sleep checklist if you're ready to copy.
CC: Roger, 15. We're ready to copy.
CDR: Okay. Crew status report: everybody's in good shape; no medication today. Onboard read-outs: BAT C, 37.0; PYRO BAT A, 37.2; PYRO BAT B, 37.2; RCS A, 94; B, 92; C, 94; D, 94. And the water has been chlorinated; the H 2 fans have been cycled; the valves are all verified; got your E-memory dump. The cabin is at 5.7; DIRECT 02 is closed, and I guess we're ready to go to sleep communica- tions configuration. Roger,
CC: 15. We copy all of that, and the Surgeon has a question about - were there - were there any obvious anomalies in the biomed harness?
CDR: No, as a matter of fact, we were just discussing that. A1 and I both have taken them off, and the sponges are all still quite damp and have their color and they're all sticking very well. I think the system looks real good.
