I have found that you have to have a contact on the notepad at the hydrophone station in order to use the sonar. The really annoying thing about this is that the notpad will often not 'show' a contact until the range is within a few kilometers. I don't know what the effective range of the sonar is, but I do know that it is at times frustrating to manually get a contact using the hydrophone and then not be able to range it until the notepad decides to trigger and accept it as real. Guess we'll have to wait for SHV!
