P: Yes.. Oordo said he had range r_ad and I guess the range scale was pegged. having
CC: Roger. And did you try, when you were the problem of reading the range outf did you try going to STAlkY and then back to ON?
CC: Okay. You probably didn't think of that because you had a lock-on light. Okay, the MDA-Uappears to be okay by ground analysis. I've checked out your various readings in it. It appears that it's working all right. For your information your first 69 readout anytime will be the last previous readout in the Rendezvous Mode.
CC: Okay. The range readout problem, we think, may be due to noise interference from either Jacksonville radar or SPAiiATS. We have to have them off the next,ireswe try this. We would like to do another Radar Test, not today, but tomorrow. It might be similar to the one you did yesterday. We,11 hive to forward infornltion on that to CONFIDr ,.,,., !T.,AL. you. We'd like you to include taking Quester pictures of the Cape. Now do you feel that you can do {his both at the same time? I have an indication that you did some of that yesterday, anyway.
P: That's correct. I got some pictures of the Cape xesterday with the Quester during the track.
CC: Okay. Well we would like to do that again when we do the test and the pictures will be taken when you are directly on bore sight, and I was concerned about whether the same you could operate the MDIU and Quester at the time. Yes.
CC: Okay. Do you have any other questions about the Radar Test? BERMUDA
P: We would like to request that we keep everything to a minimum in the evenings. We, for some reason, are having trouble sleeping. One guy bothers the other one when he's doing anything is what it amounts to. think there would be any problem that way.

CC: Roger. Pete, how about if we plan these last 5 or 6 hours before you got the Carnarvon UlXhates as a Quiet period. Would teat work out pretty good?
P: That's awful late. That's w_t finally happened. We both felt asleep last night, I guess. I know I did.
CC: Okay, we,11 keep it down then. Can you give us a statue on your temperature up there and your comfort?
P: Our comfort's fine and the temperatur e is fine. I tht,k my M-1 Experiment's quit running for good now. I don't know whether to wring it out of air or what. The problem that I had with it before was not the same thing. The valve's not making any noise any more. So I think it either ran out of air or just gave up the ghost and just Quit running. fine.
