I'm keeping this thread going in the hope that someone will eventually know the answer to one of these two questions. Automatic shutoff depth for the SJ radar is 40 feet, since I got one of those flat calms today I was able to test this - the SJ antenna doesn't actually go under on the SARGO until a depth of 50 feet. Makes no sense that the SJ cuts off when the antenna is still 10 feet above the water, makes even less sense that the crew AI doesn't have enough brainpower to turn it back on automatically when it keeps cutting out in heavy seas, and makes zero sense that there isn't a simple way to adjust the cutoff depth.
