In the face of that, a ship getting a "new" tonal may not be worth all that much attention.
(Or at least, this is my understanding of it)
But in DW, it's almost like calling attention to yourself.

Well...the issue with this is that the DoD will
never release the
exact tonals given by particular boats. What matters here is the concept of FRAZ display and the 'general' utilization of nb.
