I have found that the best practice is to only use the mesurment from the center of the ship to the bow of the ship. The logic here is you are working on geting the angle on the bow so the TDC can calculate the lead angle on your target so mesuring the angle on the ship from mid to stern realy won't help you any, and in fact could give you a backwords lead angle on target if you are not cairful.

In short if your target is traveling from the left to the right in your scope only take the reading on the right side of the verticle line for the AOB and obviosly the oposite it true if the target is traveling from right to left. if the measurment isn't the same from mid to bow and mid to stern all it means is that you are not close to 90deg AOB.
