There's no anomaly. Remember, the A-scope ranges are in hundreths of meters(yards), so add two zero's to the range ... ie the short range (step 3) on the A-scope shows 0-10-20-30-40-50-60-70-80 , this translates to 0-8000m, not 80,000.

In v2 of my range step mod I used ranges for the A-scope that match the range displayed on the PPI, for simplicity and to allow the "pips" to be displayed, ie not off the scale.

If you're using my 80|40|8 mod and would prefer the default SH4 range scale you can make this tweak (I'm at work so I don't have the default values handy but if memory serves me right the below tweak is the default range with just a swap of 1 and 3 :

Step 1 = 6000
Step 2 = 2000
Step 3 = 300

The values are the increments. In my remarks I added the (range x 8) to remind me of how many increments are display, ie total range 0-2400m. So, with a value of 300 you would see this on the bottom scale :

0-3-6-9-12-15-18-21-24
