Hello again,
I'm having problems with the Apollo 14 lunar descent, and I'm trying to figure out where I'm going wrong. I'd like to ask a few questions as I troubleshoot.
Let's start with a RTCC procedural question: I'm at about 106:30 on the flight plan, and I'm supposed to uplink to the LM the CSM SV (PDI-10) and LM SV. I'm messing something up here, and I've been trying a number of different things to see what it might be.
Before the uplinks, my V83 and AGS 317R, 440R and 277R all are in agreement, so I think I'm starting off from a good spot.
Let's do the CSM SV First. (Or does the order matter, should you do the LM SV first?) On the RTCC I'm on UPLINKS>DIS>21 for the LGC CSM update, I input the time as PDI-10. What should the TGT be, Kitty Hawk or Antares?
After doing CLC>UPL on the CSM SV does the uplink automatically go to the correct slot? Or do we have to do a V66?
For the LM SV I'm going UPLINKS>DIS>20, using present time. Again, what should my TGT be here, Antares or Kitty Hawk?
If someone could walk me through the correct steps I'm hoping I can figure out where my error(s) is/are.
Thanks
