01 22 32 45
Jerry Carr (CAPCOM): Roger.
01 22 33 08
Bill Anders (LMP): You know, it's really too bad the side windows are fogged up because we never see any sun in the rendezvous windows, and we can't get very good pictures through these foggy ones.
01 22 33 22
Jerry Carr (CAPCOM): Roger.
01 22 34 36
Bill Anders (LMP): Start number 3. H₂.

Bill Anders (LMP): Say again.
01 22 36 48
Jerry Carr (CAPCOM): Roger, Bill. Would you set up to ACCEPT a state vector update? We'll be putting it in the LM slot, and do not unzap. Over.
01 22 37 02
Bill Anders (LMP): Roger. NORMAL ACCEPT.
01 22 37 17
Bill Anders (LMP): We're going to put the word “zap” back in the dictionary.

Jerry Carr (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston. Go.
01 22 38 27
Jim Lovell (CMP): It might be interesting to note that after NAV sightings, we ran out P21, and we get a pericynthian now of 66.8 miles.
01 22 38 38
Jerry Carr (CAPCOM): Roger, 8. We copy.
01 22 38 45

01 22 39 18

01 22 43 01
Jerry Carr (CAPCOM): Bill, we show you 168 000 out, and we're getting—still getting pretty good high bit rate off the 30-foot dishes.
01 22 43 13
Bill Anders (LMP): Okay. I'm in NARROW BEAM high gain now. Were you getting good high bit rate on the OMNI?
01 22 43 26
Jerry Carr (CAPCOM): That's affirmative. We're back on high gain now.
01 22 43 39
Bill Anders (LMP): Okay. Number 1 O₂ is off, and will you clarify your previous statement. Were you getting good high bit rate while we were on the OMNI's about 10 minutes ago? Over.
01 22 43 50
Jerry Carr (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston. That's affirmative. We were getting fairly good high bit rate with a little bit of noise.
01 22 43 59
Bill Anders (LMP): Okay. Thank you.

01 22 44 20
Jerry Carr (CAPCOM): Okay.
01 22 44 42
Jerry Carr (CAPCOM): Bill, EECOM says thanks for the good job on keeping the OMNI's moving.
01 22 44 54

01 22 45 03
Jerry Carr (CAPCOM): Wilco.
01 22 45 10

01 22 45 20
Bill Anders (LMP): How about EECOM?
01 22 45 22
