STS-115 UHF Air/Ground Comms















Had a nice bit of Atlantis UHF comms on Air/Ground 1 during ascent from the "Negative Return Call" to KSC through the "Single Engine Ops 3 call." After the Atlantis preformed its roll maneuver, heard no more UHF comms.

Beautiful pics on NASA TV of the ET sep from Atlantis. UHF comms from Atlantis running ahead of NASA TV comms by about 2-3 seconds.
Glad to see Atlantis back into orbit safely.
