Is that what you're using or is there a simpler formula?
With TMO and the TDC mod, you enter the target's heading directly. No converting, no math steps to mess up on. Simply plot two points, draw a line, measure with the protractor, and enter the course.

You could also draw the Target Course on the map, and measure the angle with the protractor.
