Hiya Albrecht again!
OK, good to know. And yeah, those conclusions of mine were a bit hasty anyway, because now that I think of it a bit more there're a couple of things to note:
1) The destroyer was VERY near when he got those readings on me revving my engines after the explosions, so it's very much possible (and indeed plausible) that he still heard me!
2) He lost me later on when I went quiet again, and stayed where the last bubble clouds were. He didn't try to bomb them to smithereens however, but dropped one or two charges and stayed stationary and listened. Alas (for him) he never found us again, and thus promptly dashed away after the convoy he was supposed to be looking after in an hour or so...
So yep, I think I was a bit hasty with those impressions yesterday. The masking effect seems to be pretty subtle, though - but then again, isn't that the way it's supposed to be?
S!
