Ron.....I've been chasing banding problems on my camera for a
while......they're ALMOST gone but can be seen very faintly in the midtones.

Question!

How do I determine if my spring motor is sick?

I'm using a #8 outfit.....I've used a #10 which had lots more spring power
than mine, it would easily rip the trailer tape off the spool.....mine just
stops.
