I thought they were pretty obvious, but I could be wrong. It gives the percentage of each type that will be reported, the percentage probablility that you will actually get the report and the minimum and maximum possible time between reports. I keep all probablilities set very low as it represents my belief that they didn't come often.

plus can it be activated whilst at sea or like Commander its best left untill in-port. does it affect game stability or is there likelyhood of CTD's. the readme is not very forthgiving, and which is the correct folder to install it into - how do you find it?
I have it installed to the desktop. It's my understanding that it finds and contacts SH3 all on its own. Does it work? I have no idea, but I don't get many contact reports. I haven't bothered upping the parameters to see if I get more, because I'm happy the way things are now.

It is an external program and can probably be run at any time, but not knowing for sure I would advise waiting until you're between patrols.
