I did 12,800 by setting my 308B to 6400 and then underexposing a stop 
from what the meter said.  But then I went back to the actual 6400 
reading, because I had to compensate by opening up a stop for the 
tungsten lights in the bar I was shooting in.  If you want to shoot at 
25,000, just underexpose by another stop.

Dave, that big RC print of my brother that was on the wall at the store 
was 35mm Delta 3200 at 12,800, processed in Microphen.  The Hoosier 
Daddy stuff at http://homepage.mac.com/aaronreynolds is 35mm Delta 3200 
shot at 6400, processed in Microphen.
