How to navigate to given coordinates??
 
Hi,

Im a veteran SH3 player and just installed GWX3.2 and SH3 commander.
I keep receiving some strange radio messages that I hope you guys can help me decode.

Here is one example:
From: Open freq
To: U-47
Message:
14/9/1939
SSS.. 49 15N 10 09W
SS. Bosnia

So what does it mean? Is it a ship at this location? And if so how can I navigate to those coordinates? I cant find lat-long on my navigationmap...

Thanks for your answers!

SSS means attacked by submarine if I remember rightly. Though I'm afraid those radio messages are for immersion only. I believe even if you reached the co-ords, there would be nothing there.

SH5 maybe :)

Mopy's right. Those are real radio messages from WWII used for immersion by the GWX team.

SSS as stated, means there is a merchant already under submarine attack.

That would be a good place to stay away from.
