I could not understand how others found convoys in the areas I was in. Then I read about having to dive and listen for ships did I start to find them.
I still have a tough time finding ships early in the war but it's getting better. I also DL'ed Convoy Routes to see if it would help any but that just tells where they could be not where they are. Later in the war when you get radar things get a little better. I didn't want to start out with a boat with all the bells and whistles. I wanted to work my way up.
I agree with Armistead to play the game without cheating to see where the ships are. That takes away from the whole experience.

Your sonar works fine on the surface except for the S-boat. Always pay attention for in game lagging or stutter, means a group just entered your contact zone. Man sonar yourself to find it once you notice lag. Some people keep the stop watch up so they can notice better.
Early war is the time to find the large invasion fleets.
