Ilford Hp5 in Pyrocat-HD?

[RAZOR]

I would like to here from those using the above combination please.

Dilution, time, EI, agitation method, ect.

I have used this combination with 120 and had excellent results. I would now like to use it with 35mm but can't find any resources that list the technical aspects with this format.

Thanks.

I would start with: 5 min prewash, cont. agitation
semis-stand developement: initial agitation for the first 60 seconds and then every 3 min for 18 min. Pyrocat HD is not that sensitive to over-development - a couple of minutes extra does not seem to affect density.
This is for a 1:100 dilution of A and B.
My speed with 400 iso films tends to be around 320 iso.
