Maco 820 IR film processed in Tmax reversal kit

I tried shooting some Maco 820 IR film this weekend and developed it in the 
Kodak Tmax reversal kit.  The results were very disappointing, because my 
guess at film speed was way off. I had about 2 frames out of the roll that 
were visible (but still 3 stops underexposed), all the rest were 
underexposed severely.  It's not a development problem since the edge 
numbers were developed properly. I was using an 89B filter.

The next time I go out shooting by base exposure will be 1 second at f/16 in 
full sunlight using an 89B filter and using the Tmax reversal chemistry kit 
to give me slides.  Needless to say, this film is rather slow! It looks a 
lot like Konica.

Look's like Kodak HIE is still my favorite IR film.

Peace Rolland Elliott
