Yes, it's 35mm.
I just processed the film and agitated a bit more than
before. I also did the unthinkable; I was afraid I'd
diluted the developer too much, so between times of
agitation I took the top off the canister and added part
of a capful of hc110 stock, then turned a bit of water -
just a tiny shot, and agitated it. As I did it I imagined
other darkroom people would know I was doing something
awful, but I did it. I don't see anything wrong with the
film. Actually, it looks a bit better than the last
though it's still drying so not printed yet.
The thing I don't like about the hc110 is measuring it. I
know that's one of the things others like, but I don't.
It's back to d76 for me!
Thanks again, Richard!

I've seen a number of recommended ways to handle the
concentrate but havn't personally tried any. It IS possible
to mix some HC-110 into a stronger stock solution which can
be diluted say 1 to 4 or something that does not require the
use of an eye dropper.
According to Kodak D-76 stock should last about six
months but my experience is that it will last very much
longer.
I used my Enigma machine (cost 50 Wheaties box tops plus
postage and handling from Moline Ill.) to decode a message
from the darkroom police (I have spys everywhere). They were
going to raid you for "exagerated misbehaviour with
developer" but decided to watch something on Fox TV instead.
Had they not you would have been featured on _America's Most
Wanted_.
