Also, when attacking multiple targets or trying to get a quick shot in on an attacking destroyer, how do you enter all the required information so quickly? I have only been able to successfully attack my first victim in a convoy and then run out of time. I have reread the SHIII and GWX manuals but can't find the answers to these questions. Sorry to burden you folks with things so basic.

Maybe I can invite you to use this thread to share the most stupid questions you have ever asked or answered on this forum?
Are you using a vanilla install or any mods? For ex: OLC Ubermod (I recommend this btw, very fun to learn manual targetting with the precision tools/systems in the OLC GUI) has fixed optics so there is no zoom. I'm not sure about other mods. If you're using vanilla install though, I am able to zoom using the roll wheel between my mouse buttons. I think TAB button on keyboard also does this. UZO, however, has no zoom level that I'm aware of in vanilla. And I haven't used a mod yet that gave it zoom ability (so it's fixed AFAIK).
