I'm using EclipseMC (us3.eclipsemc.com) and OzcoIn under Stratum and port 3333. In both pools the reported hashrate is lower than what I'm seeing locally as Noncerate...

Wow! 26TH? or was it 26GH?

EMC starts at diff 2 and increases it automatically to what it considers the proper value, you can't set it manually.

The rule of thumb for difficulty is, divide your Gh/s by 1.6, then round down to the nearest power of two.

60 Gh/s 1.6 =  37.5  nearest power of two to that value is 32...

You mean 36 (6x6)? how did you arrive to 32?
In addition, if I am using 2 concurrent pools , I guess I'd need to input my total hashrate divided by 2 in the formula to calculate it at the pool level, correct?

I'm just trying to figure out why my hashrate is much less than my noncerate even after 24hrs of supposedly automatic share difficulty adjustment...

Why round down? Why not just leave at, say, ghps/1.6 (as per ckolivas' post)?

BTW, congrats on all your success with this project. Really looking forward to taking delivery of your handy-work in October.

Cheers !

Powers of two are a little easier to work with, and there's no disadvantage, so why not ?

C'mon Dave, get the CC situation straightened out.  It's been over a month.  You're losing a lot of sales!  I'm up for 4 more H Boards if I can use a CC.

Take it up with the banks...they are the ones that are blocking us.

The crew and I took a well needed weekend off - we've all been working non stop for 3 weeks straight.  Back to it Monday...
