Wish I could help,but I havent even SEEN a type XXI yet,still in my VIIC.
I haven't run a Type XXI out of a pen, but that possibility occurs to me too. My suggestion is DISABLE every other mod and just use the 1939 Type XXI mod by itself. Go into SH3 Commander and set it to "Start At Sea." That will eliminate any possibility of the antenna being broken off by a sub pen. I don't think there were sub pens in 1939, but it can't hurt.
Then start the sim using the SH3 with GWX mods shortcut.

Start with a new Captain and crew IN 1939!!!. Go into the "U-Boat" section while in your base and then to "Equipment" and then "Radar". Double click on FuMo65 even if it is highlighted. It will ask are you sure and click yes and it should say you already have this radar. Then start your mission.
If it starts without getting that broken antenna message then at least you know that it's not a defect in the mods or SH3 or GWX. Too many of us are successfully using the 1939 type XXI mod for it to be a problem with the mod. Heck, maybe Paul is right and the dang sub pen is snapping off the antenna!! But try this and let us know what happens.
