Im glad to help.

Just to clarify you battlestation comment.

Battlestation 2 is for general attack. In other words, you are about to attack a boat or use the deck gun, I will use this to have my crew efficiency on alert, an at their best.

The F7 battle station is more for being attacked, hence the hatches in the boat close for damage control.

In my findings, I am more readily located underwater at F7 by destroyer hydrophone (not ASDIC) because your crew is not necessarily quiet. They are at their stations ready to repair. I use F7 when I am already detected, and they are depth charging me. Its a way of going silent, but also at the ready for more.

If I am not detected yet, and I want to be as quiet as possible, I use the "rig for silent running" mode. Not F7. I have more evasion success with this.
