When did the KDB hydrophone enter service?

http://www.cdvandt.org/GHG1996.pdf Cannot find KDB info but several top secret Brit reports indicate that several u-boats discarded KDB and returned to GHG...:hmmm: A rotatable base system was first introduced in 1918 until 1925 (pg 4 of link) The krauts were way ahead of Britain and the US in passive crystal in-hull receptor arrays.
