1) I should be marking his postion on map with True Bearing calculations (To North) So therefore I will get his True bearing when I use ruler to join the marks (Good -This is what I have done in past)

True Bearing = My Course + Scope Bearing (target)*
*If over 360 then minus 180 to final calculation.

2) If Sub is on the targets port side (Left) then (TTB+ (plus) RB-180 = AOB)
-or-
If Sub is on the targets starboard (Right) then (TTB - minus) RB-180 = AOB)

3) I also assume that if you alter course then you must recalculate the whole solution?

Correct?

Thanks so much for this as it will really save me so much time - No more AOB wheels etc
Yep change course, solution changes this is where doing math in your head on the fly like our friend Gutted has mentioned, will benefit you greatly.
