Sounds like there's a niche market here if someone wants to figure this out,
since this is a component that is pretty much reuseable on any and every
sub. Build one that works nicely and I for one would be interested in buying
it.

If an UQC if the same/similar as/to a hydrophone, then there
are some hydrophone plans I've been collecting parts for that
might be of interest to some people:

http://sonar-fs.lboro.ac.uk/uag/products/products_hydrophone.html

I've almost got enough parts to finish one now, I'll probably
pick up the remaining parts soon.  When I've finished it, I'll
let the list know how well it works (if I finish it)...
