Default No sonar contacts with RFB 2.0

The title says it. I get no sonar tracking even when the Jap ship's right on top of me. This is the first time I've tried RFB. Takes getting used to after TMO and FotRS. My install is-RFB 2.0, RFB Patch 1, Patch 2, RSRD for RFB and RSRD patch. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Belay that (not bad, huh?). I see that when I lower the scope it tracks. I like RFB! A lot of duds. Tough to bring a freighter down with the deck gun, etc. It does take getting used to though. Kind of minimalist in a way. I like that.

i was going to ask which boat you are driving and which target provides no hydrophone return.

the hydrophone on some boats will not be usable unless you are submerged AND i think there are targets that are not detectable for some reason. search the RFB 2.0 thread for a post on this topic.

Thanks. What submods do people use with RFB (aside from RSRDC and OTC)? Just curious.
