Performance of an Electro-Acoustic SC Tube

Abstract

At the request of the Bureau of Engineering. the Naval Research Laboratory has constructed an electro-acoustic SC tube, and has carried out certain experiments to determine its relative merits as a subaqueous binaural direction finding device as compared with a standard acoustic SC tube of the type now in use on submarines in the Naval Service. The purpose of this report is to describe the instrument and to set forth the results of performance tests carried out at New London in the period 22 - 26 April 1940, inclusive, with submarine number 125 and the U.S.S. Semmes cooperating.
