The radio will not be shut down for HTV berthing. I will see if I can get 
the problem resolved.

I expect this is a mistake on the astronaut’s part, or possibly an error in 
the post-contact procedure.  I’ll pass this on to the ARISS team in Houston. 
They can get a message up to correct this.  At the very least, it should be 
resolved when the radio is turned on after the shutdown for the HTV docking 
on Tuesday.
