However, the radio is still not working in \u2018high power\u2019 mode.<\/p>\n \u2018The replacement UHF radio failed retest yesterday. Specifically, the UHF radio could not be operated in \u2018high power\u2019 mode; the radio functioned normally in the \u2018low power\u2019 setting,\u2019 noted L2 processing information on Thursday morning. <\/p>\n \u2018The team will discuss the test results and further disposition at an ERB (Engineering Review Board) meeting planned for today.\u2019<\/p>\n Options will include further work, or fly as-is \u2013 depending on Flight Rules. It is not a constraint to entering S0007 at present.<\/p>\n Following the approval to fly as-is by the ERB, the Noon Board \u2013 chaired by Leroy Cain \u2013 began their meeting at 3pm local time, where a final decision on a forward plan was discussed.<\/p>\n The meeting concluded without deciding a forward plan, and will meet again on Friday.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the shuttle is also undergoing Hyper\/MPS (Main Propulsion System) pressurization \u2013 which will require an element of troubleshooting via the replacement of a solenoid valve at the pad today. Final pressurization activities are still expected to be completed by Friday.<\/p>\n One IPR (Interim Problem Report) has been noted during initial pressurization, which requires the removal and replacement of a solenoid valve at the pad today. This is not deemed to be a problem for completing pressurization activities.<\/p>\n \u2018Hypergolic\/MPS pressurization for flight picked up yesterday. 1st stage press is expected to be complete at about 0630 \u2013 0700; final press is scheduled for Friday 3rd shift,\u2019 added Thursday\u2019s processing report. <\/p>\n \u2018Picked up an IPR during initial pressurization. The GHe load\/vent sequencer caused a momentary pressure to be exceeded on the RRCS (Right Reaction Control System) fuel He (Helium) tank of 3189 psig; should have been no more than 3176 psig.<\/p>\n \u2018The pressure overshoot was due to a solenoid valve (L8) which was slow to close when commanded. The constraint is to final pressurization (op 225-3). The plan is to R&R the valve on the 107 foot level and perform a retest today. <\/p>\n \u2018This should not be a constraint to picking up with final pressurization as scheduled tomorrow on 3rd shift.\u2019<\/font><\/p>\n In other pad flow news, airlock closeout was completed on Wednesday, as orbiter aft closeouts continue ahead of the upcoming Call-To-Stations (CTS) for the start of the S0007 Launch Countdown activities. Installation of the 50-1&2 doors and aft confidence test are scheduled for Friday.<\/p>\n L2 members<\/em><\/font>: All documentation \u2013 from which the above article has quoted snippets \u2013 is available in full in the related L2 sections, updated live.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/font><\/font>Click here for MaxQ\u2019s Stunning Apollo I\/Challenger\/Columbia Tribute Video \u2018New Days Will Rise\u2019.<\/em><\/font><\/p>\n **STARLIGHT: STS-117 MISSION REVIEW MUSIC VIDEO**<\/font><\/em> \u2013 STS-118, STS-120 and STS-122 Mission review video also available.<\/font><\/em><\/font> <\/em><\/font><\/p>\n **ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE: STS-117 MISSION REVIEW MUSIC VIDEO \u2013 AS SEEN BY THE STS-117 CREW!!**<\/font> -. Endeavour\u2019s problematic UHF radio \u2013 which underwent replacement via parts donated from Atlantis at the weekend \u2013 has failed a re-test.
