The three RCA camera missions (15, 16 & 17) all featured views of earth from the rover at various points in the mission. Ed Fendell would have simply had to pan the camera along the transmitter dish and the earth would be easy to find. Not related to TV, the photos I find really fascinating are the telehpotos ones taken of the LM from several km away. Really shows the perspective errors one can made especially on the mountain range at Hadley or Taurus Littrow. The glimpse of the Earth from the Apollo 16 rover isn't the one I remember, I've never seen that before to be honest. Nope, no moving the Guards in the goalmouth either. I awarded a free kick for the posting of the vid. I agree with England.

All 3 definitely tilted (apologies for the earlier post, "tilt" is thecorrect term) up at some point. Interestingly the Westinghouse was taken as a backup on 15- 14 used a B&W as backup. I am going from memory here, so time codes arent available.
