1 screw or 2 screws?

Sorry, if this has been asked before, but is there any way to deduce how many screws the sound contact has? IMO you can only see number of blades in one screw in DEMON? Is it possible even in RL?

Or do you have to be so close that you could see two different contacts?

Or is it just that operator has to HEAR the difference?

Thx in advance.

Good question. I asked myself that one before....but, as far as I know, I don't think there is a way to tell the difference. There should be

I use DEMON to Id the turns, but thats it

Yea, this question has been asked as far back as Janes 688i. According to the sub guys, it's possible to do IRL, but so far no version of the game has had that ability, that I know of. Would be cool to see added though...
