YMMV
I play at 128 max TC, which maximises your chances of an encounter with the enemy. Draka, I'm not so sure about all the timers being reset when you save and reload, I know weather is affected, but I have loaded a save in the past and within a short time at 128TC have had convoy contact reports come in.
