Two month patrol. 29.MAR.40 to 21.MAJ.40. Included hotspot AM53.
I never set Silent Running.
I did however, set Silent Speed (90 RPM).
I noticed no difference in my detectability, from patrols when Silent Running was set.
I've also tryed this before, both in The English Channel, and around Gibralter.
My conclussions were the same.
Does anybody know of anything in the files that contradict my findings?
I'm finding this topic to be extremely interesting.

I set knots manual,to 1-2 and wait, not necessary to zigzag,after that I slowly go deep,very deep,if the condition from hull is clear,I also use decoys,sometimes 2 at the time, with 20 second interval,if some nasty DD is hunting me,so there are a performance to take place,even if you find dead end in just that moment,there are always an option to get rid of evil units.
