Thank you, Pugsy.
I'll ask EPR to be turned on and watch my AHI's.

Re: Newbie from The Netherlands needs advice
As for the headband sliding up in back: 1. If you have long enough hair, make a pony tail just above the strap and it will hold the strap down. 2.

Re: Newbie from The Netherlands needs advice
Miss Emerita, thank you for your views. I find your suggestion about EPR very helpful and interesting. And it makes sense as I sometimes find hard to exhale despite the low fixed pressure of 7.
