I thought that was the O'Kane method, but maybe I do not understand it.
I will try to figure out what your reply recommends and I appreciate the help.

After I re-read your post I understand what you mean. You did fire with the targeting triangle, when I initially read your post, I thought you meant you fired when the Gyro-Angle was at 0 degrees with you being at the 90 degree AOB (Angle on Bow). Regardless of the color it had. When you fired did you lock the target? Did you use the spread angle? I'm assuming they were the wet-heater type torpedo (leaves the visible wake?) What was the targets speed when you fired and how badly did you miss, and are you sure they didn't go under the target?
In regards to the first post...LOL I just ended a 12 hours shift, sorry for it's unclarity and any time wasted. I'm going to delete it for the fact that it wasn't any help, and would take to long to edit it into legible english.
