OPINION

SINGLETON, Judge.

On July 16, 1983, Paul Best was arrested for driving while intoxicated (DWI). AMC 9.28.020. 1 He consented to a chemical test of his breath to measure its alcohol content. An Intoximeter 3000 breath testing machine yielded a result of .23 grams of alcohol per 210 liters of breath. On August 27, 1983, Best was again arrested for DWI. His Intoximeter reading on this occasion was .20. The alcohol in each measured sample was captured in a magnesium perchlorate tube (MPT), in an effort to comply with our decision in Anchorage v. Serrano, 649 P.2d 256 (Alaska App.1982).
