CyChrome into FL4 on Calibur

I've had intermittent luck running CyChrome labeled antibodies on our Calibur
with simultaneous detection of a second marker in FL4 (APC label). The major
problem is that when we do a single stain with the CyChrome antibody (e.g.
53-6.7, the anti-muCD8), there is a large spread of signal in FL4 that is
impossible to compensate because of the spread. The first thought was that
this is a time delay problem, but it doesn't get better if we run FACSComp
immediately before running the experiment. I still won't rule out a time delay
problem, but I thought I'd pick your brains to see if this was a common
problem with a robust solution.

Thanks,

John
