I haven't seen any pictures of radar screens but I would assume (which gets me into trouble) that early radar will use an A-Scope and by mid-war they will have PPI scopes.

The most common radars for fleet subs were SD (aircraft warning which gave no bearing) SG and SJ. Not sure SV was available...

Yes--Radar was commonly used to confirm ranges during an attack, especially under poor visibility conditions.
