Personally I have no luck with the danged things  and they only serve to increase my enemies AAA kill rate.

With spotters, you have to start them in more or less a safe zone and move them toward the enemy edge of the board each pass. Usually, you run into AAA on the fringe of their engagement range (not overall range) and can survive. At that point, you use artillery to take out the AAA and start the whole process over again.
They do work better on meeting engagements, delays and defends, however. The AI doesn't take much in the way of SPAA units, so they eventually run out from under the towed AAA umbrella and your spotters can function safely.
