Thanks in advance.
Actually, that is my exact goal. This entire video will be centered around using the accursed stadimeter. The game doesn't have a proper stadimeter plot, which the real boats used to average out errors in stadimeter readings. We are left crippled as a result and it severely impacts quality of gameplay.

However the stadimeter can be used and I'm rehearsing its use now for several days, as I also tend not to use it. I don't identify ships because my normal targeting procedures don't require it. Conventional targeting with stadimeter is absolutely dependent on identification of your target. My TMOKeys mod includes a control-I command for "Exec, hows about identifying that target for me?" That way if I miss I can blame it on him.
