Welcome aboard!

When you start a career, while you are in the office, go to the radio and click on it to select options. You should find one which says "no map updates" or the like, as well as all other difficulty options, and select what you like. Hope this helps.

So far as I can recall, the stock game sonar map contact updates are only the rays coming from your boat indicating the bearing of the contact. These are all you get for sonar, its the radar contacts that will have the little vector tails on them, and any locations of ships or TF's or convoys will also have the vector tails when you get a radio report on those.
