I was under the impression the TDC would remember AOB, speed and range for each ship I had input it for.. or did I get the wrong idea on this?
In all reality it should not remember as this was a mechanical type computer. Not much should change from ship to ship as they all kept same speed and heading in a convoy. Change AOB and distance is about it.
