"No map contact update" option issue

What version of the game are you running? Stock version 1.5 (Gold w/U-Boat expansion pack), RFB or TMO?

I'm not 100% sure. I got the game on Steam....big mistake I'm sure. It has the Uboat expansion installed as the load screen is the Uboat missions screen. But I am not 100% sure how to check what version I'm running. I can't find in the options anywhere.

Though, in readme.txt it says: "4. Changes in Addon (v1.5)"

So I think I'm running v1.5?

OK, I might be wrong here (wouldn't be the first time) but, in the stock version "No Map Contact Updates" (I think) simply means that you will not get any ship icons appearing on the screen. Your sonar lines will still appear (unless you're running RFB where even sonar lines don't show up). I've never had the necessity to look so I'm not sure if there are any mods that remove these sonar lines. If you poke around in the "Downloads" section, you might just find something appropriate that's compatible with you version.
