For the past two to three months of SH2 PA I have not seen a single convoy, all contacts have been individual ships. So, where have all the convoy's gone? Radio man reports contacts with task forces etc, usually miles away, but no convoys.

I modded out the individual ships.

(1) Sometimes, you can see a pattern like a lane in the contacts.

(2) Sometimes, its obvious the port/base where they will originate or terminate. So, can patrol off the base.

(3) Since contact reports indicate a point on a lane and traffic repeats along a lane, then you can always pick a report location and patrol a box around it. Sooner or later, something will pass there again.

Look here if you are interested in reducing/eliminating the easy undefended lone ships.
