First off, welcome aboard CamaroMan.
Second, if you're trying to understand the ins and outs of subsimming, I highly recommend you check out FPSchazly's series of "How to" videos on YouTube. They are a great source of information on TMA, sensors and weapons.
The only big advice I can give you is patience. Subs are a slow steady type of fight. You can't rush to a firing solution.
My only specific advice is regarding reconciling contacts from different sources (broadband, narrowband, conformal, active intercept, etc.) on similar bearings is to plot them up in the TMA individually at first. That might mean making some assumptions about some of the parameters, especially speed, just keep it all the same (e.g., all 10 knots). At first you'll have a bunch of contacts all over the overhead map, but as you refine the individual contact plots, they will start to group together. Eventually the groups will be distinct enough that you can start merging tracks and better refining your TMA solutions. I find this technique is especially necessary to plot out individual ships in a surface fleet.
