We use lith film in the non-silver classes at UB. You can achieve normal tonal range with very diluted dektol. Normal dilution paper developer will not provide a full tonal range but will produce a greatly compressed tonal scale. i've had good results with 1:5 dilutions, but i have seen people get better results with 1:8 even 1:10. the weaken the solution the more gray scale you'll get, but the longer you have to leave it in the developer.
I can elaborate if you want.
