Manilla Raid and Resupply V2 and Operation Rustbucket are going on the back burner because I just can't stand it anymore.

I have nothing against Heinrich Hertz, and I have no objections to the change from "cycles per second" to "hertz" in order to honor the man. However seeing Khz and Mhz in World War 2 irritates me to the point where I just gotta find this texture and fix it. We said "kilocycles" (per second was assumed) until the early 60s, if you said "kilohertz" during the Korean war nobody would know what the hell you were talking about.
I can repaint that easily enough once I find it, but PPI stands for Plan Position Indicator - a round display to give you a 360 degree visual plot. The A-scope is simply an early radar screen using ordinary oscilloscope to provide range using a vertical spike from a horizontal line, no azimuth info. These guys had a 50-50 chance of getting it right, but they somehow labeled them backwards.

That's gonna be more difficult, or even impossible to fix, hopefully somebody knows which file or files contain the labels. I can't count how many times I click the "go to PPI scope" button and find myself looking at the A-scope instead, and it's getting old. :/\\!!
