STS-32/SYNCOM/LDEF
NASA SELECT TV SCHEDULE
(Final, Rev B)
11/24/89
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
NASA Select programming may be accessed through RCA Satcom F2R, transponder
13. The frequency is 3960 MHz with a look angle of 72 degrees West
Longitude. This is a full transponder service, and will be operational 24
hours a day during the mission.
NOTE: All video downlinked from the Orbiter is non-standard field
sequential black and white except when the camcorder is being utilized.
This non-standard signal is received at the NASA Ground Terminal, White
Sands, New Mexico. During previous missions this signal was transmitted to
the Johnson Space Center by terrestrial video line, converted to standard
NTSC color and released in real time on NASA Select, Satcom F2R, XP-13.
Due to budgetary constraints, the NASA Select transponder, Satcom F2R, XP-
13, will be used in place of the terrestrial line to transmit this signal
from the NASA Ground Terminal to the Johnson Space Center where it will be
converted to standard NTSC color and released at the Johnson Space Center
ONLY in real-time. This television will be replayed on Satcom F2R, XP-13
NASA Select at the scheduled times noted in the TV Schedule and when
possible as a special playback scheduled in real-time following the
downlink if the F2R, XP-13 is available.
This means that, except where otherwise noted in the schedule, standard
NTSC color video of downlink video from the spacecraft will be available in
real-time ONLY at the Johnson Space Center.
The audio accompanying the video when F2R, XP-13 is used to bring the non-
standard video from the NASA Ground Terminal to the Johnson Space Center is
not NASA Select Audio (air/ground plus commentary from Mission Control).
It will carry only the downlink portion of the air-to-ground audio and no
commentary. Regular NASA Select audio will accompany the video on
playbacks.
Uninterrupted air-to-ground (both uplink and downlink) and commentary will
be available on Mission Audio on Satcom F2R, Transponder 9, RF sub-carrier
6113.3 Mhz.
