Referring to your post a few up from here:

Actually right there you have shown yourself to have only a cursory understanding and the whys and wherefores. (This part will be researched and updated regarding Parkes as I was writing all sorts of cross-wired mistakes here - fine tuning stuff which given the misunderstandings flying left right and centre and the fact that I cant post as fast as some folk here would like have taken their toll.) Funny, I was under the impression GDS was used as it was directly in line of sight of the moon. HSK had sight, but GDS was predefined as the station to be used on the moonwalk. Parkes kicked in about 8 minutes later and you can definitely see a change for the better in quality. After Sydney Video informed Houston of better video, they switched to HSK moments before the first step. Are you still convinced I "know nothing" about the A11 downlink?

Are you are attempting to claim I said the best footage is the GDS feed? I actually agreed with you that the telemetry tapes would yield a better result. I guess you missed that part.

I said, "Now, we have a lesser quality copy of the footage..." but I didn't stop there I also said it again when I said "This was unfortunately high contrast" So where exactly did I say it was the same as the telemetry images? I trust I have closed any misunderstanding on that issue.

Do I think the TCN-9 frame looks more like the GDS feed or the slow scan. Well I can make out Armstrong on it, plus his visor. I don't see that on the GDS feed. And I'm using a compressed version of an emailed video. It is a frame from TCN-9 Sydney. Next time I'll label the frame a little better.

Dave do you know the difference in meaning between "the same" and "similar"? In your replay you have tried that stunt twice. So let's cut the garbage and quit trying to make it out that I have written things I clearly haven't. Agreed?
