Hydrophone Sounds

Doolar · 05-22-17, 10:57 PM

I was doing a Hydrophone check and heard a strange sound. It was a very faint whistling sound and very very faint music. ( my Gramophone is off ). I set a course to intercept but the sound seems to swing between 270*to 60* from my position.( *=degrees ). No matter it seems distance and elusive. It isn't Dolphins, I've heard them many times. Is this a distant ship ? Anyone experience this ?
Thanx

Mermaids? An acoustic Easter Egg?

Well I put SHIII on pause last nite until I got a response. I now have decided to break off my hunt/attack. This sound contact is a very exact 260* at the current moment. It sounds like a female voice or music with a distinct whistle. Never heard of the "Mermaid Easter Egg". Personally I'm not into Easter Eggs, I've worked hard to achieve maximum realism, so I really don't know what it is. Been playing SHIII since 2007 and this was a new one on me. Now it's at 180* and should be ! Thanx Jerry CA45

Maybe a ship wreck just sounding weird

Well the ONLY logical explanation to me is that it is either a very well educated and talented whale or aliens. I heard the dolphins a lot, but never the whales, or at least ones like that. But anyway there 2days behind me whatever they were.
