This is a clear example of what I was saying a while ago about the limits of the random function applied by TDW.
Randomness is okay indeed, but within certain limits. Consecuitive range estimations on the same target should be sorted in ascending or descending order, depending on whether our target is moving away or closing. Any function not taking this fact into account will give silly results (like the ones reported by you) soon or later
At the time TDW was working on the random range estimation patch I had suggested a possible workaround, but I think he didn't understand me. I am glad someone else is noticing the problem now.
