I looked back at the charts of curves I'd made for the 2200 with the standard UT-3D loaded.  I didn't have any Ilford Gold Silk, but with Crane Silver Rag smooth curves gave a relatively smooth Lab B response.  So, I'm not sure where the elevated Lab B in the light areas is coming from.  I'm not sure if all my profiles are posted, but if you'll send me, off list, an e-mail address, I'll forward what I have.
