Out on patrol today; got a plane contact; extended the SD antenna; dived to a depth where the antenna would still be above water; lost the contact after a little bit; hit hard starboard turn to change the angle like you suggested.


IT WORKED!!!

Not only did it work, I didn't have any more trouble with it from then on!
