I am only getting about half the correct range when using my stadimeter.

1. Lock the target
2, Identify and check rec manual (using automated target ID to do this)
3. Activate Stadimeter and pull down until water line of ghost ship touches tallest mast of target ship and left click.
4. Then click red triangle to send to TDC

By using my map (with the 1500 yard) circle chart and sonar to verify, my ranges are always 1/2 what they should be. (ie..1200 yards show up as 600ish when using the stadimeter)

Any thought or suggestions if I am doing something wrong or is it a software issue?
