Roger, Jim. You can go back to BLOCK; we got the P27 in and verified. It was a state vector update to the LM slot, and I'm standing by for the midcourse correction number 7 and the entry PAD at your convenience. Over.

Okay. Midcourse correction number 7, RCS/G&N: 31600, not applicable, not applicable, 144:45:57.99, minus 00014, plus five zeros, plus 00001. Are you with me so far? Over.

You said not applicable for HA and HP; I started to copy it down, and then I didn't get the right number sequence. Did you skip down to what, VT?
-
Mike Collins (CAPCOM)
-
No. Let's go back to apogee is not applicable, and then I just started reading the numbers again. From there, I've got a perigee and then a DELTA-VT and then a burn time and so forth. Over.

Jim Lovell (CMP)
-
Okay. I didn't hear a plus or minus on the HP, and I only got four numbers off of it. So could you start with HP again?

Mike Collins (CAPCOM)

Okay. Going back to apogee, not applicable; perigee, plus 00191. And you weren't hearing things; it was my mistake. Over.

Okay. Picking up with DELTA-VT 00014 004 00014 45 0459 225, Shaula, up 236 000, plus 0813 minus 16503 12202 36301 146:46:41; north set of stars, Sirius and Rigel, roll 308, pitch 209, yaw 357; remarks: perigee in P30 equals plus 22.2 nautical miles. Over.

Okay. Entry PAD: area mid-Pacific, 357 152 359 146:29:13 268, plus 0813, minus 16503 068 36221 651 12202 36301 146:46:13 0028, not applicable four times, in other words, DL MAX, DL MIN, VL MAX, and VL MIN—all not applicable. Starting with TO: 400 0207 0025 0333 0816 16 0590 312. And your vortex star is Zeta Persei, which is half way between Mirfak and Aldebaran, up 165, right 34 up. Remarks: use nonexit EMS pattern.

Roger, Jim. In your computer, we'd like to do an erasable memory dump again, like we did the other day, and the reason we'd like to do it is, when you did that P37 about 8 hours ago, and you remember you put that EI time for TIG and got that P00 do thing; we'd like to—We don't think there's anything in the world wrong with it. We think everything is just perfect inside the computer, but we'd like to do an erasable dump as we did the other day; go through it bit by bit. Give us something to do down here. Over.
-
Mike Collins (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. VERB 01 NOUN 01 ENTER, 333 ENTER, and then read out register 1, and that register 1 should be 10 000. And then if it's not, I can give you procedures for getting it to 10 000. If it is 10 000 as we expect, then VERB 74 ENTER, and that will do the dump. Over.
-
Mike Collins (CAPCOM)
-
And, Apollo 8, you can do the first part of that now at your convenience to verify that register 1 is reading 10 000, but would you hold up on the dump itself until we get our ground stations configured, please. Over.

Mike Collins (CAPCOM)
-
Apollo 8, Houston. We're configured for the dump. VERB 74 ENTER at your convenience.
