1.when on surface while maning the uzo or looking through the Attack periscope sweeping the horizon keep pressing the L key if any ships or convoys are near you will lock on to them
2.When at perscope depth dont rely on your sonarman your hears can pick up a ship or a convoy at ranges as far as 38 kms away.
When playing any SH3 Campaign as you approach your patrol grid dive to perscope depth for three hours at 2-3 knts and do sonar sweeps yourself its a tried and tested method by seasoned SH3 Uboat Kapitans.

Regarding #2, if one wishes to play the game in a more realistic fashion, Rubini's hydrophone mod will do that.
One can then rely on the sonar man instead of the unrealistic always listening to it as captain.
