Finally! Back on techdiver! I saw a show on the tellie the other night about DCS in commercial divers, primarily in the North Sea. They discussed at length the differences between normal deco stops in the rough seas, and coming directly to the surface for surface deco in a chamber. Granted the show was a little dated, but they made several remarks that indicated heliox was a much better gas mix for deep diving than trimix... i.e., ANY nitrogen in the gas mix was bad. Not having read through my book on Mixed Gases, I thought I'd ask the experts here. Is NO nitrogen better than a tiny bit? -- Robert -------------------------------------------- E-mail: RLaird@pe*.co* (Robert Laird) Phone : 713-627-4323 Fax: 713-989-3086 Houston, TX -------------------------------------------- 05/04/95 08:49:33
