So if I have this right, then we can hear anything up to 34 Kms away, but the operator can only hear to 20 km?

Have you been able to determine what the operator defines as long, medium and short range?

34km is the max listening distance of the hydrophones blade, as far as the operator recognizing sound at 20km,
or what ranges he defines as long, medium, and short ranges, the mission that im planning to add to the sound trainer
will answer those good solid tactical questions you asked, right now i dont have the answer to them, as the mission is
still in developement.i will send 4 additional radio messages covering the ranges of 20km, long, medium and short ranges
with your permission, ok?

I did this test myself and could hear very faint from 34km.
Have you tried what distance you can hear a convoy?

thanks for validating that finding rulle, i havent created a mission yet for a convoy,
this is also something that needs to be known. ill work on that too shortly.

Where could I find the instructions for building the sonar overlay with the concentric circles?

i havent written down the instructions yet, it will come with the mission when its finished.
it will take awhile because theres alot of TSD calculations to sync radio messages with ranges
