Compensating development with PMK ?

from Doug McFarland (junquemail222@yahoo.com)
I process sheet film in PMK Pyro and use a slightly modified technique from the open tray method suggested by G.H. I put the film into a Tupperware container and for agitation I "pop" the container once real hard every 15 seconds. The technique works very well if the container is large enough (e.g. no film edge over development), and the mess is extremely well contained.

The question is, sometimes I want to use a slighty compensating effect with PMK to boost shadow detail. I've done some experiments but the results are inconclusive. Does anyone have any agitation ideas, or real use case examples of compensating agitation, or compensating PMK ratios without the lose of highligh detail? (I normally use 1:2:100)

TIA - Doug
