Press the "H" key (or right click on the sonar officer icon, or himself in the radio room). You'll se the hydrophone console (a big round instrument with needle and bearing marks).

There's a button marked as Ambiance volume. Click on the upper part of it to turn the volume up.

By turning the needle you scan in various directions. There are three ways to turn it:
1. drag it around with the mouse
2. click on somewhere in the dial and the needle will turn where you clicked
3. click on the wheel below

You can hear ships more than 30km away. With some practice, you'll recognize warships from merchants, and different types of them.
