Risa … I like your mail address of babbleon … shades of Nebuchadnezzar!
Re shades, uhh, of grain, uhh, for your FP4, try Dektol. Whew. Lotta
grain and contrast, hence the speed perhaps should be upped and the
developer diluted. Easy to mix :
Aqua @ 120 F + 500 mls
Metol 3.1 grams
Sod. Sulfite 45 "
Hydroquinone 12 "
Sod. Carbonate 80 "
Pot. Bromide 1.9 "
Aqua to make a liter or a quart

This apparently is wee bit diff from the proprietary Dektol and is
called D-72

Good luck
Jack
