Where is the GWX bug thread?

I'm having a problem locking on a target and keeping the lock in 1.02
I came to the forums to seek a solution or fix feeling sure there was a GWX thread for bugs. Can't find it.

The locking can only be done about 2000m out. I believe to simulate how the UZO/scope worked. It never locked on vessels that I'm aware of. It is kind of a pain but adds some realism.

The locking problem is with the scopes too, and inside 2000m range. I get it to lock, and seconds later it is unlocked again.

This didn't happen in the first GWX mod! I am being forced into manual mode and I suck at that.

Weather plays a part in the scopes etc locking
Light fog\rain and high seas all impair the ability to lock scope
Nights will also affect it

I have not noticed any problems at 3-4 km on a clear day sometimes further
