How do you set up doubles. I am confused which i should put on which post.. I was thinking short hose with secondary on right post, inflator on right post, spg on left post, primary on long hose on left post.. but not sure if that is the right way...

It's best to ask your instructor. There are several different views on what goes where and why.

I have long hose reg and drysuit inflator on right post.

The spg, bc inflator, and backup necklace reg on left post.

Some like to cross them, I don't. drysuit and bc inflator on two different posts is nice - you have buoyancy control even with one valve shut down.

so you cross the backup (necklace) behind you and then go under or over your arm to around your neck on the right side..

Yes, the back up reg on the necklace goes from left post, behind neck, around right side, either over or under the right arm. At least, that's how I do it. But it's best to check with your instructor.

I'm not saying this is the only way to do it, but the photos could help you start to visualize the setup you want.
