Intercepting

With it being Mid 1943 now in my campaign, and Allied forces using Radar in earnest now, its very difficult to move into an attack position on the surface without being detected. The problem therein also lies in the ability to know the course of the ships in question, in order to get into an attack position.

Is there a way, when your forced to dive after detecting radar signals, that you can use the hydrophones to plot the course of the target if its the case of a convoy or a task force who's radar you've detected?

I've come across several task forces and convoys, but i've missed out on each because I don't know which direction they are heading while i'm submerged, and can't plot an intercept course. Why just earlier, I thought I was heading in the right direction to intercept a Task Force after picking up their radar, only to discover I was infact heading the wrong way.

Any help guys?

Cheers
