I don't know.

Useing the notepad is a poor way to get good manual TDC results anyway.

IM USING THE TDC MANUAL THIS IS WHAT IT SAYS:

Bring up your Ship Registry and look for your contact. Once found,
make sure to check the box so the mast height is entered on the notepad as in
the picture below. OK THIS IS WHAT AM TAKING ABOUT,WHEN I TRY TO DO THIS IM NOT GETTING MAST HEIGHT IN THE UPPER RIGHT CORNER WHERE IT SHOULD BE AS ILLUSTRADED IN THE FOTO

YOU SEE THAT IT SHOWS THE MAST HEIGHT,WELL I DONT HAVE THAT,WHEN I CLICK ON THE LITTLE BOX IN THE RECONITION MANUAL.

Get Range to Target

Place the horizontal line of your scope on the waterline of the target.
Next, click on “Range” in the Notepad. This will switch you to the Stadimeter
which you then place at the top of the highest mast of the ship.
Click the left mouse button when the line has been placed on the highest mast.
The range to target will then appear in the Notepad.

HERE IN THE TEXT IT SAYS CLICK ON RANGE IN THE NOTEPAD,WELL I DONT HAVE THAT SHOWING?

ok.....lets see.....

1) ID the ship
2) Lock the periscope on the ship and click on the tick box in the recognition manual. Mke sure the ship is still locked when you click the box.
3) the Ship name should apperar in the note pad along with mast height. (if the ship is still locked)

If not, I'm all out of ideas
