@H.sie:
No, a single ship cannot be sufficient to send a convoy report. Otherwise, every lone merchant ship encountered at sea could be called a convoy.
I found in extensive testing for my 'Smoke-on-horizon' mod that you need a minimum of two ships in view to send a Contact Report. The number of ships needed can be much higher in light fog or darkness.
However, it is true that, once the convoy is detected, it needs only a sighting of a single ship of the convoy for the convoy to be 'recognised'.
Many thanks for the variable address that you sent to me. I have not tested it yet, but it is perhaps the case that it records ships-in-sight, rather than convoys.
