Rich, the thing about O2 sensors- believe it or not, I work with my sensors a lot in the unit and in the pressure pot- both interfaced to my Desert Star computer that output each MV and pO2- from 0.7 to 1.4- and I am very familiar with their behavior and idiosyncrasies. I trust them and the knowledge I have of them implicitly so that if, for ex., I have two that I feel are not right and one that I felt was right on, I would turn off electronics and manually dive it for whatever time was appropriate for the depth- shallow forever, deep until I got shallow. For non-rebreather divers and for non-diving-scientist-rebreather experts, this is a hard concept to swallow. A physiologist/biochemist must know and trust buffers; a CC rebreather diver must know and trust sensors. On Tue, 1 Oct 1996, Richard Pyle wrote: > > > Thanks.
