Realistic times for FP4 in HC-110

[KidA]

Last night I developed a roll of FP4 (135) in HC 110 'B' (1:31) Pushed to 200. I don't have my notes at hand, so I don't remember the time exactly, but I did follow recommended times. And the result were really nice. Quite high contrast tho. I was printing with '0-1/2' multigrade filters. My first time printing FP4 and I fell in love! Can't wait to expose some more of this stuff at different speeds.

Yesterday when randomly testing my new sensitometer I encountered the issue many here report. That of way too much contrast in Fp4 when in HC110 Dilution B.

Here are two curves of FP4. 6 and 9 min. As reported in the datasheet.

Here are my results.

I actually get too contrasty negatives with FP4 in HC-110 with both 1+31 and 1+63. I’ve cut their times almost in half. So i’m curious about your results but I could use help interpreting them.
