I had one and did exactly as you did. Still, I didn't like the results
compared to conventional trays. I bought one when I only had a dry
darkroom, but switched to drums for paper processing.

Re traditional darkroom, has anyone had experience using the Spiratone 
Processor, a machine that mass produced RC prints up to about 11x16?
Kodak still 
makes the Activator chemical for one of their stabilizer models. These
machines 
used two chemicals, but I used only the activator with a stop bath in
the 
second tray. Back in the 70's when I used the Spiratone for a college TV
course, I 
fixed the prints in a standard tray, followed by the usual short wash
times 
for RC prints.
