So my question to the players playing both GWX3 and OLCgold , is there a way to get a solution from the uzo while comiting surface attacks, as i always have to either go to PD to get a soulution useing Attack periscope or use the same while surfaced.

Hitman is right.
You can't obtain a firing solution and/or the convoy's course with the use of the UZO. Instead, the UZO is very helpful when you perform night surface attacks and in order to do so you must first obtain the convoy's course.Then you set your Uboat to a course perpendicular to the convoy's own course, calibrate the scope by setting its bearing to 0 degrees and also the AoB indicator to 90 deg port or starboard depending on which side of the convoy you are (port or starboard).After that you lock the TDC. You can now use the marks to make a rough estimation of the target's range. Of course you must set the speed too.
Finally, don't use the attack periscope to plot/obtain a convoy's course. Follow the convoy, mark its position at standard intervals (eg. 3m 15sec)for a period of time (i.e. for a distance of say, at least 25km) and
then plot the course.
