As a Commander die hard *grin*, take a set of backup tables.  When the
computer works, its' great.  When it doesn't you'll never get out of the
water.  I've had my computer back to Cochran a few times and was never
able to get it fixed.  First dive is always great, second sometimes will
calculate really log deco times.

Because of the problems I usually just dive tables.

When I was diving the commander I had it set at "0" conservatism and I
added deep stops and padded the shallow ones.  On a square profile I've
noticed that the difference on a long dive is a little quicker on the
first dive but about the same on the second when comparing to tables
generated with Decom with the default partial pressure settings.

Hope this helps,
Art.

		Hi there,

		My name is James. I am from Sydney. I have just joined
the techdiver list. I have recently purchased a Commander Nitrox
computer. Can anyone give me some suggested conservatism settings to use
to remain safe but get some realistic advantage out of the two gas deco
function?

		Any replies would be most appreciated.
