Slight clarification - the fifth line will be the first blade harmonic overlaid with the fifth shaft harmonic.

That's how it works in real life, too, and is the biggest part of narrowband passive acoustics in DW that is true-to-life (albeit best case scenario, all the time).
This is really confusing me. The manual says (for each platform with DEMON) "The first line on the left indicates the shaft rotation speed. The other lines indicate individual blades on the propeller."

As I understand TLAM strike the shaft rotation speed is modeled on a line that also represents a blade line which, by my reading, contradicts the manual. Perhaps I've missed an update in a readme doc or something. I will post my question on the SCS board to get their take on the issue.
