OK, I'm confused now. What's the OLC video talking about, when he mentions a split prism horizontal stadimeter?
The split prism stadimeter was used first to determine the mast heigth (vertically) and then it was rotated 90º with a special handle to use it horizontally. The same split prism was used twice.
