Unfortunately, there is no seperate "Send/Enter bearing" option like there was in RL and in SHI. This has been discussed at length in the past in threads where I was involved in. You will either have to re-measure range and send that, or send the outdated range to transmit a new bearing. Luckily, range is the least important of all datas for a firing solution and makes little difference for the torpedo gyro angle, if any (it would severely screw the target speed solution though once people get the magic chronometer from SHIII back and compute speed with that based on an inaccurate range).
