Something which we had not noticed when the hatch _s closed. Other than that we haven't noticed anything up or down, or left or right. it's all going very smoothly.

I think there should be some way before we undock with tether hooked-up so we can ascertain if we can control the Agena from the Gemini. Maybe we had better undock again, one of these days, and power-up the radar over a station and see if we really are getting commands into it or not. round down here also and we are going to give you some more information on it, plus probably ask you a few questions on Revolution 13 as you pass over the States. that, even though you are not getting any MAP lights, there is every indication here that all your commands are getting into the Agena. a MAP and sometimes we didn't. The one suspicion we had that we didn't get a MAP, was that we never could. When we had radar lock, we didn't get a MAP, excepting the switch of antennas during radar tracking. We tried both positions and we should have gotten a MAP on one of them. We should have gotten a MAP on both of them. exactly how long you're holding the Transmit switch in the TRANSMIT position while waiting for a light when you're undocked. verify it. never could get radar lock-on. I implied that the Lock-on light was still working. That,s why I'm confused, because apparently we get MAPS without the radar being locked-on. Is that possible? tions down here on the ground, we think the problem is in the return circuitry from the Agena to you in both the MAP and the Radar Lock-on light. This is the one thing that would explain both the anom- alies that you have seen. you come over the States in about an hour and a half. are going to want to not only talk about the MAP lights and the Lock-on light, but we are going to try to get some sort of feel for the FDI problem you had at the same time and see if we can get some correlation between all those three anamolies. wander now.
