I run GWX 3.0 and recently made it into early 1942, mounting radar on my IXC (don't remember exact radar model, but it is the only one availiable this early).

So how does the thing work? I did not get any certain information from manual or google.
Only things I learned is that it has narrow sector (~10 degrees) and boat should circle to perform sweep. And the thing attracts enemy units, when it is ON.

Question is how exactly radar works?
Detected contacts just appear on the map?
And how to use radar manually - I did not even know that it is possible, but since you can man radar (R hotkey), there must be a way, right?
