    Mark and everyone else who replied: Thank You.

    I at least now know why they come out sucky. The problem for is I 
like B&W film and I like developing my own. I like making my own prints. 
The fact that the scans come out looking so horribly is problematic.

    What I might do is get myself a used JOBO CPE2 and then see how I 
like colour. I might have to start choosing which films I use based on 
if I think I will scan it or not. Not sure..

    Anyhow, thanks to all the replies.
