I really whish the "contact advancing" for radio reports would be available to those of us that don't use map contacts. It's not really cheating because i can plot a somewhat accurate intercept anyway. It just saves time seeing the ghosts.

But..

As it is right now, the radio reports for single contacts are shown with no timestamp. I have no idea how long that report has been sitting there. So i have no way of knowing it's current location (based on its heading and speed). Without that, there's no way i can plot an intercept.
