    You may want to consider mixing Agfa 120 yourself. I 
posted the formula to this list not long ago. Kodak Selectol 
Soft is probaby nearly identical. I think it may be 
available packaged from Photographer's Formulary but all the 
constituents are also useful for other developers and are 
not difficult to obtain.
