Following up on this, I got a response from our primary sonar development engineer:

There’s a few things to do still to verify the test setup then I’d like to run a decent number of units through to confirm that the production units are consistent enough to publish a single plot.

Seems like we’re unlikely to have tangible measurements in time for your report due date, and given you would presumably want some time to look at/analyse the beam profile it’s unfortunately best to assume we won’t be able to provide that in time, sorry!

Feel free to follow up if there’s anything else we can help with 🙂
