Any body used Pyrocat or its ilk?

Yes
I was wondering if it might help the highlights on the night shots I've been doing lately in place of my rapidly depleting bottle of rodinal.
 
EdBray posted some 5x4 Delta souped in Pyro, can't find em now

Pyro is on my list of developers to try but it seems a little tricky to find as a solution, I don't want to faff with powders
 
I've stumbled across a dev called obsidian aqua which whilst still powder is only a couple of chemicals. Looks simple enough and pretty cheap.
 
I'm currently using PMK Pyro. It is used quite dilute so I think it's going to last a long time. It's supposed to be used with an alkaline fixer but I normally just use Ilford Rapid.

You can't really tell much from a scanned image but this was Agfa APX100 in PMK Pyro:

Hehe! Just pulled a roll of GP3 from the tank from a developer mixed from random powders based on a recipe on the web. Mixed up the Obsidian Aqua last night and did the roll and it worked, negs look good but won't get to scan till tomorrow,
