Furuno? Only got to play with ours for a few minutes, so I didn't notice all those nifty features, but yeah, I'm sure the degree of variation possible within a single emitter would make some people incredibly irate.

People said the same thing about realistic sonar in naval sims before...

Although I'd enjoy having access to more radar setting and option. ARPA would be fun to have

The long range mode of my SPS-49 would be nice. That and actual jamming capability on my SLQ-32.
