OK, I ran a few more experiments and came up with the attached.

#declare Rad = function {sqrt (x*x+y*y)}
#declare S = 0.5;
#declare W5 = function {Ang (x, y, z) * sin (Rad(x,y,z)*tau/RadFreq)*f_noise3d
(x/S, y/S, z)}

I hope that's more like what you want.

Yeah - I've noticed a radial asymmetry and a seam as well - I'll try to think
about a way to not have any discontinuities.
