HQ Types

The information may be in the forums but after doing multiple searches and reading numerous threads, I have been unable to find it.

When modding a scenario there is a spot in the Location data for HQ type. According to the editors manual there are 5 types 100 is command, Naval is 20, Air is 50, Corps is 0, and amphibious is 30. The last digit in the type code is range from 1-9. Command HQ with 9 range would be 109, Air HQ with range of 2 would be 52, range of 5 would be 55. That is the extent of the help I've found in the manual that came with the game.
When going through the individual units I have found other types listed in the HQ type slot.
Examples:
-Location/ID 129 Red Chinese Army HQ type 75-I assume this is HQ type 7, range 5, but where did the 70 series HQ number come from?
-Location/ID 203 (Soviet) Far East Front HQ type 75-same question as above.
-Location/ID 4425 (IJ Navy) Singapore Det HQ type 220-This one is a unit and not an HQ, but has an entry in the HQ type slot. If read like HQ's it would be type 22/220, range zero. What does it mean?
-The Soviets have a bunch of units with HQ type 221.

Any information/clarification would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
BP

Here is a quick suggestion because I don't know the answer. Write down the information for the HQs in question, then open the game and look at the HQs in question.
