Comms are NOT 5/5 for most Radio Frequency calls over the past 2-3 minutes.  Endeavour crew has finished eating.  Still waiting on the "waste flush".

Dragon calling SpaceX, go to stop drying suits, asking if they have time to do a waste system flush, half an hour to hatch opening so good to flush.

Houston states still have comms issue, going to take down big-loops to troubleshoot.
