Frank,

Thanks for the info. Will have a check through the various tanks here to 
see what I have for the CPE2. There is a 4x5 solution here in terms of two 
tanks and spirals etc. I have a few sheets of exposed 5x7 from a shoot 
about three weeks ago so will see if they can be processed with the Jobo in 
print drums. As for 8x10, I am happier using trays at the moment and still 
have some Pyro testing to do that will be tray based.

I managed to miss a lift for the CPE2 a while back before finding out the 
new cost of the things - reassuringly expensive is the term I would use.......

Cheers,
            Clive
