Not sure if you noticed, When Plotting a course on Nav Map you see ghosted Ship Markers. The ghosted marker is the projected intercept for radio contact reports. The Problem here is, The proected intecept is not relative to time of report but rather from the time you plot the course.
So if time compression drops to 1 at time of report you are able to plot a far more accurate intercept.

The whole received contact time thing was added to avoid this problem. Now that you know the time the contact was marked, you can work out it's location now, then plot an accurate intercept from there.
The ghost things are like the 1-2-3 targeting thing, just there for people that don't know any better.
From experience from SH3, TC x1 with
every radio report will drive you batty within minutes since you're going to get knocked out of TC
constantly, for radio reports half a globe away.
You can already set this via the data\Cfg\main.cfg settings for TC. Though I'm sure DW will make this optional and work independantly from the main.cfg settings so that he doesn't have to mess with that core file. It's got a lot of PC specific settings that wouldn't work well with a wide release like this.
