I just recently descovered this myself when adding new mount location C03 for the Snorkel Mount Radar Dectector.
Both C01 and C02 that are located on the Conning Tower have AcceptedType set to NULL. So when a device is installed it can go to either location if both exist.
This is a stock game bug.
I am looking into correcting this issue.
I beleive that C01 is for Early versions and C02 is for Later versions of the Radar Warning Receivers.
I plan to remove the Snorkel Mounted RWR as a Upgrades Option and if the Snorkel is Equiped, have the RWR installed automatically in mid 1943 time frame or later using the Uboat SNS files.

Now that I think about it, I wonder if that Metox that I had was on my type "A" boat. I thought I had the "B" by then but I could be wrong. It may be that very file which I saw by the way when I was looking around, but I didn't know what to replace "Null" with on the positions (if this makes any sense). I'll need to see if it was my type "A" boat that the Metox showed up. Now of course, on the "B" it doesn't.
I hope that your idea works there. Like I said, if I knew what to put in place of "null", I could try putting the Metox in differant CO_ placements to see if it will come up in the game. And, true, it makes sense that if there are two or more possible locals for the device (any device) it more than likely won't show at all, if I'm reading you right.
I'll check back to see if this will work.
Thanks
