I can't hear ship contacts on sonar. In this video I'm 3000 yards away from a ship. I go to the sonar station and there is no sound on that bearing.
The first time this happened I ran into a Dutch tug and wanted to make a practice approach using my sonar. I could not hear it on the hydrophones. I thought maybe it was because the target was so small.
Two days later I ran into this contact. A small Dutch freighter, I tried going to 100 feet, all stop, the works. I can hear my own screws, but no targets. Note that the light does not come on when on target bearing.
Link is a video I made of the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The only mod running is Trigger Maru Overhaul.
