but I`m sure a lot of "I can hear propellors but my Hydrophone man can`t" posts are due to the periscope being raised.

Not always. I've had several instances where I went to 20 meters and could clearly hear a target that my SO couldn't. Makes me wonder how many contacts I miss tooling along at 64x.

Yes, he gives updates as your bearing position to the followed contact change.
