SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - Q for the OLC users: When to take the measurements?

I'm not too good at using OLC's GUI for manual targeting yet. But I want to stick to it to get rid of the point-click-hit laser like accuracy of automatic targeting.

One specific problem I have is the low zoom level. It seems the boat has to be pretty near to the target to get accurate measurements of the speed, distance and aob.

My question is: At which distance do you guys take these measurements?

And: Do you stick to the speed reported in a convoy contact message or do you take a measurement yourself to make it more accurate?
