It looks like the Voyager team is preparing for a new "memory upload" to the FDS computer on Friday, as evident from the DSN schedule and instructions shown below for Voyager 1.

I am guessing that this is to rearrange the software so that it no longer uses the locations in the faulty memory chip in the FDS. If true, then hopefully we will hear Voyager 1's true voice on Sunday, 45 hours later. OTOH, this may be just one of many steps on the road to recovery.
🤞
