I have always found you get detected less at PD than deep
My observations
I usually raise a scope - sight a target and lower again
Make the solution raise then los
Another spread using the same technique - if possible - then dive deep
3\4 kts then down to 2 as I gain some depth

For those using the stealth meter remember the colour changes are only an indication that you COULD be heard at those speeds\depth\noise rather than you ARE detected
A lot of ppl make the mistake that when the stealth meter turns red you are already discovered and go flank etc to escape
All you are doing is ringing the dinner bell

I have in GWX been on the suface in the middle of a convoy in heavy fog
Running down the lanes while reloading torps from externals
Not realistic I know and ended with me being rammed by a DD that in all honesty I dont think knew I was there
The other escorts were way behind the convoy dropping DC at the time on nothing
Tis what happens when you get greedy
I had already sunk 3 tankers and a cargo from the convoy
Should have just slipped away but meh
Death or glory
