I couldn't even see the ship with my own eyes at the first moment, I had to switch off the light of my room and turn my monitor more bright in order to see it.

I still have no problems sending contact reports - even at bad conditions.

Then, I set a course in parallel to the convoy - same speed and same course. All the time during shadowing I had only one (or sometime two) escorts in visible range, but never the merchants. Anyway, I could always send hourly contact reports. Wasn't hard, even at TC = 8 ... 32.

So I guess there are some differences regarding contacts in your and my sh3-installation. Maybe in Contacts.cfg ??
Perhaps both of you are testing in different years?
