At any rate--according to the book--it wasn't uncommon that I didn't see anything for twenty days--but I'm getting a little ansy In general, is the merchant traffic greatly reduced with RSRD? I'm off to read the readme file again--and thanks for any replies
Just for the record, what time period was this "20 days of no contacts" ?

I've done two patrols now, and not run into anything.
Time period of these two patrols ?
20 days of no contact started I think, May 8th, 1942. I'm not sure that's the exact date--but it ws definately early May, 1942

The other involved new careers with the Asiatic Fleet-- December 1941 and January 1942.
