Roger, Frank. We've got it in the checklist here as right around 4 minutes—4 hours before EI, right after your nominal P23, P37 onboard comparisons, KG-1, page E-1.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Roger. We're showing some garbage on your computer. If you will hit ERROR RESET, we can clear that PROGRAM ALARM so the next one can be identified. Over.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
I think this—this is a carryover from your last PROGRAM ALARM there on that P37.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Roger. Your battery is full; you can terminate charging. You've got 40 amp-hours on it now, and we've got a couple of requests for data here.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
Okay. We were just talking about that. I tell Bill stop. Okay. What are your requests?
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
The first one is—the first time somebody is down in the equipment bay, we would like to get another reading on your RCS temperatures—those six temp meter readings —
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Good deal, Frank. The other one is—the boys in the back room would like some time when everybody is awake—if you would fire up both cabin fans for about 5 minutes, they would like to see what the DELTA temperature is on the telemetry when you get the stagnation broken down and get some flow going over it. So if you can see your way clear to do that, we would like to see it same time when everybody is up.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Yes. They got that data, and they were kind of interested in seeing what it looks like when the cabin is nice and warm and the temperature indicator is reading on the high side, to see how the DELTA works in the other direction.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Another thing, Frank, is we just want to remind you that there is no charge needed on A battery.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
Hey, listen, these cabin fans—one of them sounds like it's got a bad bearing. We are going to turn it off. It's got a real squeal to it.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
We will try them again, one at a time, and see if we can determine which one's got the noise.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
Number 2 is really bad. It's got a bad bearing, and it whines like mad, so we are not going to turn it on.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
We are not going to try number 1 either; there may have—something might have got in both of them, Jerry.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
Roger. We would leave the PTC long enough to go orient toward the earth for a TV shot to see if this TV thing is going off on 128.

Roger, Frank. That is fine. Do you have the gimbal angles you need?

I'd like to keep this one kind of short because we're trying to get some sleep earlier than yesterday.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
I said, will this be a short one? We are trying to hurry things up a little bit to see if we can get as much sleep as possible.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Apollo 8, Houston. Would you put the BIOMED switch on the right side now, please?
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
That is what you wanted, isn't it? I thought that is what it was all squared away for.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Jack says you want to be sure and use the red filter and the filter holder for that One. It takes a little darker filter.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
Do you want to take both red filters on there or just the one for the one for the filter holder?
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
He thinks just the red one on the filter holder will do, but might not hurt to have the other one ready, just in case.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
How about if we use the telephoto? It will be a little harder to focus, but it might end up a better picture.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Roger, Frank. If you want to use the telephoto lens, you ought to use the same combination you used going out, the 25A.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Frank, the doctors say they are not getting anything on Bill yet. Apparently, he is not plugged up.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
He is down underneath the couch getting some stuff out; he doesn't have his umbilical on.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
Tell them to look at the stuff they got yesterday. He hasn't changed at all, just as mean as ever.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Hey, Frank, this simulation has really been great. What do you say after these photos we recycle back to TLI again?
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
I say, Bill will be ready in a minute; he is cycling back and forth under the couch trying to get the TV stuff out.
- Frank Borman (CDR)
-
We're not through yet. We've still got 100 000 miles to go. You know, we kind of feel like it was all over with TEI, but we're still a long way.
