Exactly that. My problem is, they never find me. Of course now that ive raised their passive sonar ablities so they can hear a sub captain so much as fart anywhere within 3000 meters , they only seem to find me if they catch the broadside of the sub at 3000 meters or less.

They always run off in seperate directions for a look see. NEVER where im curertnly at. So long as they do that, i will not be caught unless i want to be caught. EDIT: AND THIS is the difference between a mission like U505 and a campign convoy encounter. The DE's in the U505 mission, ALWAYS come looking in the right area to find you. IN campaign, they seem to look in the right areas.
