Well if said resources don't reliably do a good job, no sense using them. Let alone the vast distances of the water being operated in vs. the range of the phones.
I'm also curious about the uboataces.com article; on one hand it says the phones couldn't pick up range, on the other it says they could pick up a convoy at 100km.
So how did this 100km figure come to be determined, i.e. ?
