I seem to be noticing higher than normal base fog in the edges of my 4x5 TMY she et film when developed in Xtol. I haven't noticed this with HC110 or with Tmax 1 00. Has anyone else noticed this?

If I remember right from Kodak's data, TMY has a higher FBF than TMX, at least they recommend a higher density for a Zone I exposure.
