This is why it works: PK can be corrected on the fly. That means when its running and you are not happy with something like the speed or AoB, you can just put new data and the position keeper will update the solution. You can also update the ships actual location by sending new bearing and range to position keeper.
Sending range also provides bearing where your periscope optics are aiming at. So sending AoB will just update the solution with new AoB. Sending Speed will update the solution with just new speed. Sending Range will update the Solution with bearing and range so basicly it will provide a new location.

So if I understand, you need to update the AOB for each targets you are aiming to! Even in Convoy??
In SH3, in a convoy situation, the TDC was linked with the periscope ( red/green nob). After you had find the AOB for one target, you had just to point another target with the periscope to get and updated AOB for that target.
And in the "Fast 90" targeting way, where you set ur course perpendiculary to the course of the target with AOB = 90 ( port or Starb..) at bearing 0, the AOB of the target was updated only by pointing it with the periscope.
This option of linking or unlinking the TDC with the periscope was very usefull in SH3, specialy in a "sonar only attack" or a Sub vs Sub fight where you conduct ur attack only from the attack map with the TDC unlinked to the periscope. It was then possible to enter a bearing in the TDC only by turning its nob.
So all this is absent in SH4 ??
Is it possible to enter a bearing directly in the TDC without using periscope or the "send to TDC" button from the sonar ?
Im new to SH4 ( got my copy only 2 days ago) and I dont understand yet how the position Keeper works. Maybe thats why the Note Pad miss me that much...lol
