The size of the screen is alway going to be a problem. I can never seem to get just the right zoom level to get it perfect.
But remember, at ranges of 20 Kyds or greater you don't have to be spot on the money accurate. Initially all you need to do is establish his approximate track. Once you have that down you can begin to close his position and take your time refining your plot. Once all of that adds up you will enter the solution.
It's frustrating at first because you are actually doing the work of 5-7 people (the radar operator, the approach officer, the TDC operator, the plot team and the Captain) but once you get it down it is most rewarding.

ps. Almost done. Just have to check a couple of details with Nisgeis and fix a couple of miistakes. It's a long one, so thanks for you patience.
