When I take a range with the wheel, it's always about half of what the stadimeter on the notepad gives me. So I counted started dividing the tic marks by 2 which got my range close enough... still my AOB and Speed readings are way off.

Can anyone help?
For the range readings, you must multiply the mast height x2 when using the AOB rings. This is how it was in the beginning until some mods started doing the multiplication within the recognition manual itself. This is not the case here. So Mast Height *2, then read the range from the middle disk, and 'yes', measurements are at max zoom.

For speed, I believe the mark is in the wrong spot. Try reading the speed at about 57° on the inner ring. I believe that the lines are not calibrated correctly. - I noted this a couple posts earlier.

Oh and the flag reference isn't showing up for me either.
Flag reference is drag not hover IIRC. Did you try dragging it onto the screen from the Flaggen tab? It's possible I'm mistaken since I can't check the UI right now. <- confirmed, didn't want to fire it up since now I won't be sleeping for the next few hours. lol.
