HA! Doug wishes them well and Skvortsov (I think) responds with "HA HA Break a leg!"

Help! Is there any one watching NASA TV off AC-3 Satellite. They changed there Audio format to AC-3. I have a Pansat 3500SD and have a great picture but NO SOUND! Dose anybody know how I can get the sound back using this recevied?
You posted this same question in the NASA TV HD thread yesterday and we answered it there. Quoting:
"Use your audio button to select another audio pair (probably audio 2 or 3 or 4) since audio 1 is in AC-3 format and not supported directly with the Pansat 3500SD (although that might be a receiver that passes AC-3 through to an external AC-3 decoder)."
NASA TV swapped their audio feeds on September 1st so that the AC-3 is now primary, and you have to go through the extra audio selection step on your receiver if you want PCM audio.

All crews do that upon hatch closure (I think it's mandatory). It lets the Soyuz CDR know that everything looks good on the Soyuz hatch, and that the station hatch is about to be closed.
I love it too - it's a typical Russian solution. Instead of using expensive radios, just give it a good slap!
