That is in 10's, so 1 is 10, 2 is 20 and so on up to 18 which is 180. So if you came up with 27 on the map, you'd set it at a little under 3 for 30. Now is your sub to the right or left of the target ship? That is if you were on the bow of the enemy ship, would you look to the right or left to find your sub? If it's right, that's starboard and you set the AOB dial to the S side. If your sub is to the left, that's port and you set the AOB dial to the P side.

In your second part, I assume you are talking about the ship's course, not bearing. What I do is use the mark tool to put an x where the ship is, wait a little bit, then make another x where the ship is. Draw a line between the two marks and you have the ship's course.

Try watching the video tutorials that are stickied at the top of this forum on the TDC+PK, they should help.
