Default Need help with spec 20...



Well I did a some samples with a spec 20, looking for phosphates. Now the problem I have is the instructions I was given and I'm almost certain I did them wrong but maybe there is a way to correct for this? So what I did was set my wavelength to 885, and zeroed it. I then put my samples in and was getting like .1-.3 for reading on percent transmittance and anywhere from 1.55-1.6 for absorbance. Now shouldn't the reading be on the other side of the scale??? What can I do to remedy this!!!!

A broken machine doesn't help. Doesn't make me feel much better but is there a way to convert this and make it right?
