Near the Kobe area is where some of the warships are supposed to generate in the HarborTraffic layer, but everything is set to "GENERIC" for practically the entire harbor. There are a few "PC" groups for Patrol Craft that use questionable generic calls that may not have vessels available. However, I'm looking in the other layers now for a specific vessel call that is incorrect. Do any of you with this experience have an approximate time frame? It would help with narrowing down which file to suspect the most. You'll not be surprised that our main suspect is... 4Xx_Jap_TaskForce... again... We might have to change how they run.
Mine occurred on December 25, 1942. On one of the attempts before the CTD, I took a look around the narrows with the external cam. I saw shore emplacements on both sides of the entrance right where you'd expect them to be. They were on dry land and commanded both directions into and out of the bay. I also took a quick "fly-by" at the first harbor on the port side going into the bay. There were multiple vessels (warships) docked side by side, several occurrences of three each. I did not linger or check other harbors.
