"I know that several of us have installed it at the 'end' of the tank opposite the drain end."
 I agree--this is probably the best location. Due to the tank's stepped design, the drain end doesn't always drain well, so aiming the nozzle at that end is what you want.
 For an interior photo, see photos/album/383137854/pic/1724344457/view?picmode=&mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=1&count=20&dir=asc>. This was taken from the point of view of the flush nozzle I was about to install.
 One other tip: don't get one of those fancy "Cyclone" sprayers with the spinning head. It sounds like a good idea, but in practice, it soon clogs and jams. Take it from one who tried it... you'll end up replacing it, and that's a job nobody wants to do again! Get a plain nozzle.
