I take it you're actually using meters..that's a big difference. Are you using SCAF, ect...I don't think TMO 1.9 uses it, so you are measuring to the highest mast point. I use a mod SCAF for TMO 1.9 beta and it works good. I'd rather measure by the funnel than the mast anyway.

No, the stad doesn't get messed up. Sometimes the TBT or scope can and it will line up off center, but you can still take a stad measurement. I haven't looked at all the post, but I assume you're doing it right. Are you sure your pinging the right ship and not another one behind further away.
Take one of the tools and measure the distance on the nav map, so you can see which one is right.

We're you getting you speed using stad measurements? Are you in a position you can do a 3 minute measurement to get a correct speed?
