DO
· RANDOM tempByte

Or you could scale the value using WORD variables
RANDOM tempWord
tempWord = tempWord / 327

This works because // returns a value from 0 to the divisor minus one. The span between the two values is 4000. Your desired minimum value is 3000, hence gets added to the result of the modulus operation.
