Its Dec 39 and am in my 1XB just of Calais

Ship spotted

no bearing so am scanning thru periscope---nothing

ok so scan again pressing the L button regulary to pick up contact

Aha a T2 stationary ? yes 31km away in dover harbour

Hmm that cant be the one surely - a C2 stationary in Dover finally a Tribal DD there too

Odd - scan some more ah at last a small merchant 10km away

Didnt realise the range went that far - nice to know as will try that again at sea and see what it picks up
