Hey, Gus. We are coming up on El Paso.

Guaymas CapCom

Molly Brown, that T/M check is okay on the ground.

John Young

Yes.

John Young

You've got to pitch over. It's beneath us.

John Young

That's the mountain range right there. See that hill right over there? I think El Paso is under the clouds.

Guaymas CapCom

Molly Brown, Guaymas. Would you say again the trouble you are having with your pump check?

Gus Grissom

We had no trouble with the pump check.

Guaymas CapCom

Roger.

Guaymas CapCom

Would you remove pump A off of primary?

Gus Grissom

Is pump A off primary?

Gus Grissom

Pump A is off primary.

John Young

Well, No. 2 audio to RECORD. Suit Fan No. 2 — check.

John Young

Change the tape again over the Cape.

Guaymas CapCom

Molly Brown. This is Guaymas handing you over to Texas.

John Young

There is nothing down there to see. You know it?

Gus Grissom

That sight blocks the window. Know it?

John Young

Yeah, I know it.

Gus Grissom

I couldn't track it in Pulse.

Gus Grissom

How much fuel will we need for the next burn?

John Young

The standard burn is 93 ft/sec. We will have enough.

Gus Grissom

We're alined okay, now.

Gus Grissom

Go ahead, Cape CAP COM.

Gordon Cooper (CapCom)

Do you have your standby telemetry transmitter on and ready for a tape dump?

Gus Grissom

Okay. Our standby T/M is in REAL-TIME.

Gordon Cooper (CapCom)

Okay. You are commanding it on. All righty, we'll give you the word on it then. What is the status of your other platform modes, Molly BrownBEF or Free?

Gordon Cooper (CapCom)

What is the status of your other platform modes, such as BEF and Free?

Gus Grissom

Well SEF is fine. Orbit Rate is the one that drives me off in roll. I haven't checked BEF yet. I'll go ahead and give it a check now.

Gordon Cooper (CapCom)

How long does it take you to build up this quarter degree rate in that yaw rate, starting from zero yaw rate?

Gus Grissom

Gordo, it just gradually accelerates. It's some slow leak out there.

Gordon Cooper (CapCom)

Roger. Are you satisfied with obtaining and holding your attitudes visually?
