I don't want to disturb the live updates to this thread but I have watched and followed along many of these Soyuz landings and I'm always surprised how poor the communications quality is between the Soyuz and the Russian Misson Control...

29:21 to landing...things are going well..apparently...

Some day, year or century the Russians will have satellite comms with their spacecraft like every other major space faring nation.
