Subject: Nitrox - Deco depths
To: techdiver@terra.net

I trained as Advanced Nitrox Diver with IANTD and have been diving on Nitrox
for about a month now but using the no-stop times (1 minute deco at 6 metres)
or using a standard air computer and decoing as it recommended.

I have been using the Buhlman tables as taught by IANTD but the last deco stop
is at 3 metres.  In the UK it is easier to deco at 6 metres (tides and swell
etc) and I would prefer to spend the deco time at this depth.  Does anyone know
a formula to work out how to deco at 6m instead of the 3m recommended (ie.  is
it double the time spent at 3m)?  Or is there a set of alternative tables
decoing at 6m?

Anyone help?

Dawn
