Dear Colleagues,

Recently I tried to view Cy5 in the Fl4 channel of my FACSTAR Plus
and had considerable difficulty getting a decent signal beyond the
first log, while that same sample gave a signal beyond the third log
on the Calibur.
I'm wondering if there is any significant reason why I shouldn't be able
to duplicate HeNe laser 'conditions' on the FACSTAR Plus using
Rhodamine 6G in a Dye Head. I was even using approximately the same 
bandpass,
a 660/30? Any thoughts?

Gene
