Question for those of you who have tried this w/ your cleaners... any advice as far as how to go about this 'tuning' process? I've seen some reference to making a special lid and using some different height spacers, but nothing more specific than that.

If someone has way too much time on their hands, some step-by-step pics showing (and explaining) what you're working towards would be outstanding

A little detergent, I used Simple Green, in the bath made a big improvement in my US cleaner. It must break up the surface tension of the water or something but whatever it does the increase in surface activity was noticeable as was the screeching sound output.
