Default Radio? Names of merchant ships

Ok, so there's a file with names of merchant ships.

I've seen people say their radioman can catch the SOS from a sinking merchant.

My question is -- how? I've never seen this. Is it RuB? A radio mod? Or am I just not seeing it?

Default Eh?

81 views and nobody with anything to say?

Am I just smoking the good stuff without realizing it?

Some radio mods include scripted reports from sinking merchant ships; however, these are not triggered by actual in-game events.

You're one of my heroes, Irishred. Your Radio mod has really added to the feel of 'being there' when I play. I'd buy you a beer, but I guess you'll just have to settle for this. You rock!

Agree, radiolog is excellent thing. Just intercepted an SSS signal. It`s just fifth day of the patrol and I`ve received quite a dozen of messages. After all these silent, no message patrols it MAKES a difference

Also if a U-boat had questioned the survivors of a ship you get a bit more info.
