JJ: John has shared a couple of his personal insights below. I would be interested in hearing what some of your own general "rules of thumb" might be to new users of Deco Planner? Thanks in advance, Tod ---------------------------------------------------- When I started, I was using a low GF of about 20-30% and a high GF of 80-85%. .... I became more comfortable with the plans and discussing it with the others, we decided to push the high GF's a little, going up to 90% and we now use 100%. The low GF has pretty much stayed at 20% for the more extreme stuff and maybe 30% for shallow dives. A simple rule of thumb to remember about the GF's is that the low GF determines where your first deep stop starts - so on more extreme dives, it would be prudent to start your stops deeper. The high GF determines how much time you spend on your last stop, so a more conservative value will give you longer at that stop. The intermediate stops are then interpolated on the GF low-high line. -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
