swung from the GT-3 flight where nobody got in­
formed of anything over to our flight where we
got i nformed by three different people about the
same event.
On our flight, too, we were really more
aware of t he problem than those people were.
We
could sit right here and see the gantry come
down and stop, that was really the only problem
they had in the whole count .
I don't think radio discipline is a problem, Each
guy was disciplined on his own channel .
They were
conducting their tests on their own channel .
But
we were lis tening to three different communica­
tors at the same time.
We should have had only
one.
I think probably what we will need to do is
to get to about T-3, and then just cut in the
CAP COM.
That was the way it wa.s planned to be, I thought.
That's the way Al planned it.
That's correct.
I think, because there had been
some lack of information on GT-3, that it some­
how had been written into the SEDR so that we
were also on the Booster Test Conductor's MOPS,
so that we were also getting his countdown.
