DEAR J,
        Yes, please send me recommended times & temps.  Were your results,
indeed, with 35mm T-Max 100?  
                THANKS!
                        CHEERS!
                                BOB

Hi Bob,
I used Pyrocat HD a couple of years ago and compared it to Xtol and 
several other developers.  It was visibly grainier than Xtol and 
brightest highlights lost edge definition.  It did produce a stain image 
in relief.  I went to the trouble to set up a portrait outdoors with the 
sun above but well behind the subject, who was lit by a strobe in a soft 
box, to test its ability to separate the high values.  I found nothing 
to recommend it over Xtol.

I'll go downstairs and look up times and temps later, if you need.
