I would like to set my view of the PPI scope closer and permanently. Is this possible?
It is BUT you will need to use Silent 3ditor to change the proper parameters. You must open the file cameras.dat (In the folder "Silent Hunter 4/data/library") and go to:

--->362: Dummycam_Radioroom_Ascope (Yes, no error, it's the A-scope entry!!)
---------->370 Cameraparams
---------------->371 Cameraparams

and change "AngularAngle=75" for a lower vaule, for example "AngularAngle=55"

That will give you a closer view of the PPI (The lower the number, the closer the view, and inversely)

So the radar is calibrated for metric only? No way to change it to Imperial?
Unfortunately, yes

It is possible to modify the range scales in the PPI and A-Scope screens to be in yards, BUT the digital readout added by Nisgeis is hardcoded to display only in metres.
