Has anyone ever experimented with using FX-2 as a 2 bath developer? I have been using Pyrocat HD as 2 bath with some high contrast scenes and have had pretty good success. I looked at the Barry Thornton 2 bath and wondered if some glycin could be included as it does produce very subtle highlights, then I realized that FX-2 already has it. I will probably experiment but just wanted to see if anyone has gone through this before.
Thanks

try this
RD-202
Bath A:
Sodium sulfite 60g
Glycin 7g
Metol 7g
Sodium carbonate 7g
Water 1l
pH 8
Bath B (one shot):
Potassium carbonate 10g
Water 1l
3min in bath A, and 5min in bath B. produce sharp and fine grain negatives
some samples and discussion
I've had great success with two bath Pyrocat MC.
