Okay, remember, TC isn't going to mess it up. If you have enemy DDs and other escorts looking for you, and you are close to them, I wouldn't go over 4 or 8 on TC. But be ready to drop it to normal time, by hitting the Backspace key. If you go too high in TC when they're close, you are asking for trouble.
For myself, I don't go to TC until I'm at least a minimum of 5,000 to 6,000 yards distance from them. And I make sure my stern is pointed right at them. If you're deep, stay there. At that distance though, change your Telegraph so it reads the numerical speed settings instead of the words. Go to about 3.5 knots on the dial and click on it. Then go to TC of about 8, and let about 30 minutes gametime expire on the clock. Go back to normal time and check the hydrophones yourself to see if you can hear any ships. If so, check their range using the active sonar ping.
If they are over 10,000 yards away, then go to 16x on the TC for about an hour of game time. Go to normal time, and check the hydrophones for ship noise. If it's clear, you should be able to surface.
Just remember, be patient! When you run silent, it takes time to go places! Give it time.
