I used to have one, and retrofitted it for RA-4, then like an idiot, sold it! I was fortunate enough to pick one up last week (gawd! It's heavy!). It was in like new condition, and without the retrofit, so it runs about two minutes each in the developer, and blix (or in my plan, the fixer) Since I am becoming a 35mm B&W person, I was hoping that someone in the group who does now, or has in the past used the RCP-20 for B&W might decloak and give me their opinions/thoughts and/or tips! I was thinking that the liquid Ilford chemicals might be ideal for this device. The one I had a couple of years ago had a bad foam cover on the stopbath roller, and Durst still was able to supply the parts, so I figured that the modest investment I made last week might be very useful in the darkroom. Thanks for any light you might shed on this! (Yeah- I know. I AM checking the web, but I'd like to hear any first hand personal experiences any of you might have! :o}~ ) Dan, Tickled pink in B&W
