[APML] Forte-Pan in the chamber

[George Anderson <tillerman1@videotron.ca>]

I have just dropped 4 short rolls each of Forte-Pan 200 and 400 film in
the hypering chamber, they are going through the dessication stage right
now and I'll bring on the forming gas in a few hours.
I will be doing incremental hypering in ten hour stages. Every ten hours
I'll pull a roll of each out of the chamber and seal the roll. The once
I have the rolls for 10, 20, 30 and 40 hours done I'll put in a short
roll which will just have the dessication done.
The I will expose the rolls with a very cheap and nasty version of
Robert and Don's light boxes and see if the hypering has any effect on
the film at all.
The reason for the dessicated only is to provide a zero hypering
benchmark, I have found that all of the films I have tested so far have
had slight improvements if they are dessicated for a few hours with heat
and vacuume.
Once the films have been exposed I'll process them with HC-110 dil B and
let the list know the results.
Any chance anyone on the list has the instructions for a Unicolor Film
Drum II film processor? I had one given to me but it is missing the
instructions, and never having processed more than one roll at a time I
haven't had a need for it up until now.
