I do know about the radio contacts, if they are within a close enough range I will go snoop about, but 95% of the time I waste 2-3 days searching the area ahead of their direction of travel with no luck.
Hydro Hunting!! There is a learning curve but its well worth it, Use germ138's method to figure out the course of the ship after 3 bearings and your sub can be moving
