  Could anyone say why it is that You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. needs to have '$H=@' in the transliteration page header?
  
  This seems to me to be wrong.
  
  Pages You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. and You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. are on the same side of the parchment sheet. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. is on the left side, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. is on the right side. Now, if you look closely at You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. you will see that the writing is in a colour that is darker than normal for quire 20. Also the top lines in f115r are similarly dark. Moreover because there is good evidence that the manuscript was written sheet-by-sheet and not in book page order it is likely that You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. and the top lines in f115r were written in one sitting by the same person.
  
  Would this not be sufficient reason for making hand 3 the writer of f115r?
  
  Some of you will notice that You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. which faces You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. also has its top lines dark. However I still believe sheet-by-sheet to be the most likely conjecture.

  IIRC the top 12 lines of f115 r were, according to LFD, written by Scribe2
  The the rest was writtenby Scribe 3. the change is marked in RF1b-er.
  
  <f115r.1,@P0>    <@H=2>fshhdar.qopchol.qochedain.otedy.cheopol.teeedy.oroiir.oechedy.oteedy.qotchedy
  <f115r.13,+P0>    <@H=3>tchedy.qoolkeedy.qokchedy.qotchd.lpchedy.qotcho.lar.airor,lchy.
  
  Edit : Ah found it
  

  LFD Wrote:In folio 115 recto,
  where Scribe 2 writes the first twelve lines before Scribe 3 takes over.
