Hi Robert,

If you decide to try a daylight tank, I highly recommend one called the
Combi-Plan.  I've been using mine for about 3 years and its wonderful.  You
can load six sheets at a time (I've heard from people who do 12 at a time,
I'm not that brave) and agitate using the inversion method.  I have NEVER
had a problem with streaking or uneven developement.  I only wish I could
use it for 8x10's!  Good luck.
