I guess I'm lucky then, my LDS banks 28%, 32%, 36% and 50%. The moral to this story is it depends how they are planning on filling your tanks.
Or unlucky, if you wanted to get a different mix than one of those four.

If you plan to go down the tech route, it is worthwhile learning to clean your cylinders and manifold yourself. Although Nitrox was derived from rocket science, oxygen-cleaning is not rocket science, anyone can do it. But it does require some training, an ultrasoninc cleaner, a valve removal tool, christo-lube, viton o-rings, distilled water and some Joy dishwashing liquid.
In a couple of hours you can have your cylinders/manifold oxygen clean and ready for inspection.
I second that - all of the LDS I've seen in TX use partial pressure fills.
First thing is to make sure they use the right bands for the tanks. You need 7" or 6.9" bands (good luck finding 6.9") or they won't fit.
