I believe the post/thread Lanzfeld is referring to is this one:

Ducimus says the visual range is 30km, but points out that that is for flawless conditions. Environmental variables (light, sea state, fog, clouds etc.) all have a dramatic impact on this.

Make enough noise under water and a DD/escort can hear you as well as you do him over your KDB. And yes, that is from a long way!
