Yeas I've noticed this too. I have sometimes pinged to get depth in the middle of convoys, without the DDs reacting.

I guess this is accurate. After all, you ping straight down, so the sound doesn't carry too far away. And if a DD hear it, it may think it's another DD...

But if you use the active sonar and ping a DD I suspect there would be a party...
