There is a strange behavior with that range dial. Without using the stadimeter at all you can go up to 1100 yards by just selecting that thing on the outer edge and moving it. You will probably need to set it, send the data to TDC, see what range you really picked, and adjust it. In other words, the granularity on that input dial is pretty coarse.

Then, you need to use the stadimeter as already described earlier to go beyond 1100 yards, which invariably happens as you typically start tracking from a fair distance. However, you are now in another "range" of that input dial, and you can't go below 1100 manually. So you'd have to use the stadimeter again to get into that section.

That happens because you may want to verify your settings periodically, and when you want to go back below 1100 it's time to fiddle with the stadimeter.

It's all very quirky and annoying. It's fun fiddling with all this while trying to line up a shot on a fast ship.
