Yup...Patched to 1.4 and running TMO (not v1.5)

Have you also tried manually dialing the sonar to the bearing indicated by your scope to see if you can hear it yourself? (i.e. go to sonar and simply click your cursor on the sonar dialscreen and it will turn to that bearing).

I went through a complete 360 using my mouse wheel to turn the dial. No green light or sound.

One other thing; you're not mistaking a fishing boat (sails = no noise) for a merchant are you? No offense intended just want to eliminate that possibility.

Never thought about that yet it would be odd that the first merchant encountered would always be a sampan, fishing boat, etc. in every career I tried. I started a career in each and tried different boats.

I disabled all mods and tried in the stock game and it worked. Could I possibly have a corrupt TMO or other mod?

Thanks for your input
