Thanks,
I think you just shed some light.  Diveinn initially sent me the wrong first
stage (no swivel), and the Tech 50 second which came with the first shipment
had the 3/8" hose.  I received the DST first stage on a swap from Diveinn,
but still had the original hose meant to go (I guess) with the original first
stage they sent me.

If this makes any sense at all, do you think I should look for a 1/2" hose
for my second stage or just plug up the 1/2" port.
Thanks
Mark
