Hmm...could the Hydrophone Operators Corps have been infiltrated by the Japanese? :hmm:

Well above the 56 foot level is more or less accurate as sound is lost in surface clutter. That being said I have however had my sonarman track at periscope level so may be a "skill" based issue.
The rest I totally agree with. |
Its a bit screwy the way it works now in 1.2, I have had my soundman call out contacts at PD and even continue calling them out on the surface, but it may depend on the crew and boat. I usually make sure I have a fresh experienced crewman on duty.
