Using Active Sonar

Tuee · 11-17-05, 07:22 PM

On the Kilo mission in the demo, when I use active sonar I can hear the audible returns, but no bright spots show up on the display, even after many pings. I have been able to mark the contacts if I already knew their bearing by clicking on the edge of the "ripple" the moment I heard the ping bounce back... but there must be a better way. Any tips? Could the shallowness of the water in this mission be reducing the effectiveness of the sonar?
