Thanks, Ben!  I was already a huge fan of the site, but I heard about the forum in your interview on the 1/28/21 Space and Things podcast. Now I will have another way to enjoy it!

Apollo 11 Moments of Interest / 117:58:55 GNC reactions to newspapers after the landing

117:58:55 to 118:00:55 GNC reactions to newspapers after the landing
(It sounds like the newspaper may have been displayed in the MOCR on "Channel 65".  Would that have been one of the channels the flight controllers could have selected to view on their monitors?)

“You ought to see the paper.”

“Is it on sale downstairs?” “Sorry I didn’t pick one up.”

“Our helper over here says if you want to buy about 50 of those things, can you imagine what they will be worth about 50 years from now? Oh boy.”
“Hell, they’ll probably be worth about a dime.”

Imagine my reaction as I was listening to these words exactly 50 years from when they were said.

General Discussion / CHannel number in URL

Is there a list of channel numbers to be used in the URL when posting a new topic?

For example, this URL takes us to the FIDO's channel (&ch=20):

  https://apolloinrealtime.org/11/?t=166:33:33&ch=20

Where would I find the channel number for GNC, for example?

Thanks!
