Retarded Sonarman
Happens more then I care for; get a ship reporting or even a screen indicator (f5) and you move to intercept. You know it's there. You stop got to periscope depth, or 15-20m and answer all stop.
Qualified po / crewmen at the hydrophone station, fresh not fatigued, about 8 patrols behind him.
Order a Sweep - nothing.
Perform a sweep yourself and detect a merchant. ( I actually like to do this anyhow )
Order your sonarman to follow the contact; and you get "No sound contact".
Ahh, excuse me - lets turn up the volume and try again, "No sound contact".
Tell me again why I qualified this dweeb, if I need to do this all myself anyhow.
How about I qualify him to peal onions in the galley.
