[Leica] fair shots now 777 APX400

[jsmith342 at cox.net (Jeffery Smith)]

The nice thing about 777 is that it is fine at 72-73. I'll try some APX 400
or APX 100 this week. I'm still testing that new 50/2 Heliar and need to try
some different films with it.

I'm about 10 rolls into the gallon, and plan to start replenishing at 20.
The agitation drill I'm using is 60 secs. initial agitation, 4 inversions
every 60 secs. down to the four minute mark, then let it sit and give it two
inverasions 60 secs. before starting to pour out. I think 11 mins. for APX
400 is good place to start, at 72-73*F.
