Need Help Using OLC Compass

[nodlew]

I really like the manual targeting aspect of the OLC ubermod, but there are some other changes that are requiring some getting-used to. The map tools are different, and in the case of the course-plotting cursor, less explicit\accurate than the ones for GWX. Now it is a compass rose with no numbers. And the huge, beautiful, extremely fast and simple to use slide-out compass rose for GWX is gone now as well and all I am left with is a relatively tiny compass I can bring up on the left of the screen. Which I would accept gracefully, except this compass--apparently my only compass--does not even show my heading relative to North on a scale of 360 degs, which is what my crew are reporting ship contacts at. Ship, bearing 85, long range. I find myself on the map screen trying to use the protractor which only goes to 180 deg, trying to add and subtract my way to some clue as to where the enemy ship is relative to me, which is made doubly hard by the fact that my ship's position is not even visible on the map at any except the largest scale of magnification, where the little circle representing me is encompassing kilometers of ocean.
The OLC compass shows my heading relative to Noth on a Decimal scale. 90 deg is now 2.5, 180 is now 5. Can any of you much more intelligent fellows tell me what method is used to quickly translate the one into the other? Or is there a compass I am not seeing?
