You're absolutely right goldorak, I don't know why I'm not thinking clearly. I must be having brain overload from all these contacts, god I HATE trying to cover everything in high-contact environments. I guess I was so busy with the sonar station that I never even thought to pop up to PD and take some pictures. On the other hand, I'd picked up some of the traffic pretty far away, like 20 nm which I believe is outside visual range.
It's funny, in the scenarios I'm playing now TMA is no longer really a problem, but SONAR is such a pain in the ass. Trying to keep situational awareness and tag only certain contacts in the mix is a real headache. The main problem is that multiple contacts share similar bearings far too often and, coupled with mirror contacts from ships on my other side, I almost never know which freqency lines go with which class.
