RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Hydrophone systems



Joseph Perkel,
I am lucky to have one of those jobs that allows a lot of time to think...If you were to take two hydrophones, face them forward in direction, seperate them with an air filled barrier also facing forward, supply each a preamp, audio amp with adjustable sensativity controls such as volume and gain, then provide each a small bar graph display, to derive at the exact bearing of a detected contact, you would turn your boat slowly passed the detected targets estimated location until the bar graph displays are equal in activity and I would say within 5 to 10 degrees you would know for sure as to its location.

David,

Free is always the "right price"! I cannot be there but, look forward to seeing the results.

Let me ask you this,... what can a homebuilder expect in terms of narrowing the bearings to prop sounds to say... within 5 deg? Is that a reasonable expectation?

Joe
