Preview:

NASA Flight Engineer Reid Wiseman and Flight Engineer Alexander Gerst of the European Space Agency will exit the station's Quest airlock for the Oct. 7 spacewalk at about 8:10 a.m., both wearing U.S. spacesuits. NASA TV coverage of the planned six-and-a-half-hour spacewalk will begin at 7 a.m. Wiseman will be extravehicular crew member one (EV1) and will wear a suit bearing red stripes. Gerst will be EV2 and wear a suit with no stripes. The astronauts will move a failed cooling pump from temporary to long-term storage on the station's truss. They also will install a new relay system that will provide backup power options to the mobile transporter, which moves the large robotic arm around the out outside of the space station.

I finally found a link with audio http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/iss_ustream.html#.VDOJ6uckM8J so I can be useful again :)  The Node 1 hatch is closed and depress has started in the airlock.

A recorded piece on the 6 person crew is running on the feed, a little odd

sounds like they missed a step in the purge cycle which the ground caught and almost got to hear a swear word of disgust from the IVA :)  They're restarting the procedure after correcting the error

Apparently In-Suit Light Exercise (ISLE) pre-breathe in progress for the 2 astronauts.

Please help with the coverage - I need to head home for dinner.  ;)
