Bob,

To be honest I do not do my own developing anymore.  But I do use the
TMax3200 at 1600 which is really surprisingly good.  Sorry I could not be
more help.  I can tell you that the the person who does my developing pulled
the film 1 stop using standard Kodak chemicals but that's all I remember him
saying.  Also something about a Tmax developer?  I seem to remember him
saying something specific to Tmax.
