Hi Hitman,

I was wondering why in the 'E-Meßtafel' the distances for 1.5x and 6x zoom do not differ by a factor of 4, but some different value. I don't understand why for the 'mast height' formula it's a factor of 4, but not in the 'E-Meßtafel' case. Could you please explain why it's like that?

Cheers, LGN1

PS: From my personal experience I think your formulation 'Mast/nº of marks x 1000' is a bit missleading. I think it's better to use either 'Mast/nº of marks x 100' or 'Mast/milliradians x 1000'. At least, I counted the marks and did not realize at first that one marks corresponds to 10 milliradians.
