Default Hydrophone & Radar Help

Are the hydrophone and radar bugged or is just I don't know how to work them?!

On the hydrophone I can detect and hear ships by rotating the hydrophone with the mouse wheel but how do I track them down? Once I hear a ship should something appear on the pad on in the top left hand corner of the screen so I can put info into TDC? Or do I need to do something else to enter the info into the TDC?

Radar just does not work at all. I can sit at the radar station but I can't turn the wheel or detect anything.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

In the beginning of the war, the uboats hadn`t radar

I have begun my first patrol and i am near the english coast.
I am in very bad weather with high waves. I do see black lines of 5
ships on the map and hear them on the hydrophone but i don`t see
the ships And i am real nearby the ships because the lines
are very short.

There's a hydrophone-bug in the new patch ...

solution: re-install the game, skip the patch. I had to do this

There wasn't any text-info on the "notepad". See post #1
