I have hard time finding info on these.
Namely:

How does the quantum flux generator level affect the spawn rates and spawn types.

As in has someone actual experience with these to give an answer even if it is anecdotal like:

"We had QFG level 2, we had 1 wh spawning on twice a week on average, it was one third times low class wh, one third of times high class, rarely knownspace" Or something in those lines.

"Increases chance" is incredibly useless information on the QFG itself.

Word on the streets is that it doesn't make a significant/notable difference or doesn't actually work at all. Sounds like a waste of money ...

It increases the chance of WHs spawning in your system.

I did some testing on the sisi with these. I wasn't too scientific about it so take this with a big grain of salt. My impression for the flux gen was that it was very small chance increase to wh spawning in system. The upgrade for ded sites def worked. Had noticibly more spawns for ded sites with that upgrade in. The flux gen is a waste of isk imo.

PS: Tested these with lvl 5 upgrades in over the course of 1-2 weeks. Again wasn't super scientific about it cause I had to rat the system up which was a pain in the ass XD
Test may be skewed since it was done on sisi in Fountain. Wh's on sisi aren't activated and thus respawned anywhere near the degree they are on TQ. This might have been the cause of low spawn rates.

I can see the SiSi issue of wh-s not getting spawned frequently enough by people opening them from other side as as a potential skewer of results. So it potentially does affect frequency. Even if it is increase from something like 10% chance a day to 15% a day it might interest me so your info is interesting for me. Any chance you remember did it change the type of WH spawn frequency? Where did the holes lead to? In null from my experience C5 entrances you can find much more easily then anything else. Any chance the QFX-s were changing that?

In any case whatever the real truth is thank you for sharing your observations.

Didn't we try that in 08S-? I surely didn't notice that thing do **** anyhow, guess you *verified* that old guess.
