I talked to JOBO about this issue..... using 2509N reels. They told me
that some guys have luck with 6 sheets and some do not. Seems un
predictable. I use 4 most of the time, but have used 6 without dire
consequences and certainly no streaks. Watch out for developer
exhaustion... there is a lot of film in there and not too much chemistry.

One warning however - those Jobo series 2500 reels that hold up to
6 sheets at once - don't do it. I have uneven results if I ever load up
all six sheets at once. I only load a max of 4 sheets per reel - always
leaving the middle empty. It always works better for me that way. Dunno
why, just works better.
