I do not know anything about this specific edition of the Range and AOB finder (don't have SH5, so not familiar with this mod), but I do know how it works in general. (I used it from it's inception with SH3) I think you are looking at the wrong place for the optical length of the target (green arrow). It should be found on the inside scale of the middle (moveable) wheel. That will be aligned to the AOB as calculated by the device. In the second image you have the green arrow at 6.5 (650 meters range), instead of 7.5. So that one is certainly wrong. The scale that you have the green arrow pointed to is only to be used for range (number times 100 meters) values.

BTW did you first calculate the range, and then turn the wheel from the target (mast-) height value to the target length value? That is the proper way to set up the wheels for the AOB calculation!
