Two tangential Radar Questions...
1) What's a good rule of thumb for folks using this mod as to how far aircraft can spot you?
Normally when I'm notified of an SD radar contact, I check the aircraft bearing and range and monitor its flight. I'm pretty sure that anything outside a 6000 yard radius of my boat won't change course to attack me.but how far out should I really be worried about?
Follow-up question... Do they spot me and call in more pixies? Do they advise any shipping that I'm in the area and steer it away?
2) I've been using T as the hotkey to toggle my Aircraft radar on and off just fine on my previous missions. I hit T and I either see a message that says "Turning OFF SD Air Search Radar" or one that says "Turning ON SD Air Search Radar"
I just got my first SJ surface set though and I'm a bit confused.
The card says that T CTRL will toggle that On&Off.
I'm assuming that means hold down the left Ctrl key and hit T.
When I do that, I don't get any message from my chief engineer.
Is the radar working as it should?
I did go to the set, turned it on myself and made sure that the scope was showing a display. It now seems to be on whenever I check it and the antenna IS turning.
