Jazman,

If you are having problems with manual tdc it is NOT because of the range estimation. It is more likely error in the speed estimation. a small error in speed estimation will result in a miss except at extemely close range. If you want to improve the stadimeter range finding method, determine the height of the smokestack, which is easier to see than the top of the mast. The top of the mast often dissappears making it impossible to get an accurate fix. If you use the smokestack heigh you should see a big improvement. Joe
