The depth mod I've seen online uses a 100K pot. Lift the top of the 68K resistor out of it's hole. Attach the hanging end to lug 3 of the pot. Attach lug 2 into the hole you just took the resistor out of. Ground lug 1.

Oops! Sorry, the resistor goes to lug 2, and lug 3 goes back to the circuit! Good luck!
