I guess that would be more realistic.
The only thing that puzzles me is if they should not be pinging while listening passively, I guess they could deafen their own sonarmen this way. In all other situations they should be pinging continuosly. That is - if he knows that you are around, he tries to listen, if he picks you up - then he should be immediately switching to active sonar to get exact bearing and range and not switching it off unless he loses track. If he can't get contact with you passively, he should try to ping in a search pattern across last known position, making breaks to listen passively from time to time. And I recon when DD first get to you he should start pinging from far away at max active sonar range as he sure cannot hear a thing while moving that fast and active pinging is the only way to make contact with you.
