INTRODUCTION
This is the transcription of the Apollo ll flightcrew communications as recorded on the command module (CM) data storage equipment (DSE), and subsequently transmitted (dumped) to Manned Space Flight Network stations. Magnetic tapes containing dumped voice and onboardrecorded ground elapsed time (GET) were forwarded to the NASA Manned Spacecraft Center, Houston, Texas. Transcription of these tapes was mauaged by David M. Goldenbaum, Test Division, Apollo Spacecraft Program Office, to whom questions regarding this document should be referred. The Apollo ll mission was flown July 16 to July 24, 1969. are identified as follows:

communicator
(CAP COMM)
In the text, a series of three dots (...) is used to designate those portions of the comm_mications which could not be transcribed because of garbling. One dash (-) is used to indicate a speaker's pause or a self-interruption. Two dashes (- -) are used to indicate an interruption by another speaker or a point at which a recording was abruptly terminated.

Yes, what you say, f:8 at 1/250th? Yes, f:8 at'l/250th. And after you get it all set up, check that f-stop again because it slides and slips off with very little twist.
