It's a small geeky touch IMO, kind of non precision approach for U-boats, but it can be very immersive for real nav captains...
Yesterday I was rethinking about this neat feature that you have introduced in TWoS. Are those antennas marked on the navigation map? If yes, with just two bearings taken at a short interval one from the other and some trigonometry, we could know the exact U-boat position relative to each base. No need to know beforehand the approximate range from the radio signal
