I've never played later than the second radar set in terms of dates/upgrades available.

Hi Orpheus
I can assure you that OHII has no effect on your boats equipment.
No files in OHII change anything with equipment.
OHII does change your starting bunker and boat type - that is all

If your game is working with only OHII installed and crashes when you add others - I would suggest that OHII is not the problem

Anyway I was able to start a career with a boat equipped with the rotatable radar and in 1943, starting from Brest, that worked. Then I started again with the earlier radar, the one installed in panels bolted on the Conning tower, and starting in 1943 in Brest that worked also. However, the radar (bolted on kind, fumo 29) still doesn't work in my custom single player mission and I don't know why. Gonna experiment with it some more.

Sounds like your single mission is not giving you the correct equipment

I don't know about Open Horizon Missions since I haven't been able to get them to work yet. The game crashes every time I open the Nav map, and the port I start in for the 1944 mission, "final years", has no ships or subs in it of any kind. (?)

Again - please test using only OHII and im sure you will find the it does work and your CTDs when opening the map is not caused by OHII

So, the radar works, apparently. But it works when it works and it does not work when it does not work. So the radar works sometimes and does not work at other times and I still do not understand the conditions which cause it to work or to fail to work.

Untill you can get a stable setup - I do not see how you can test this.
Remeber your earlier post :-

"I am surprised. If the radar is just plain BROKE it surprises me that no one much has complained about it and that no one has fixed or attempted to fix it. I mean we have people creating mods that ensure that the Observation Periscope extension is historically accurate, but no one cares that the Radar doesn't work?"

If anyone knows, please enlighten me. Otherwise, I will continue my own investigations and provide any info I garner.

Your current mod setup is causing your issues and until you fix that you will continue to have issues
