Maybe radar emission detection works in a similar manor by providing a bearing. But I never got to that stage in the game. Or witnessed it in videos.
Yes unfortunately rwr's provide an ahistorical bearing to the radar(s) in question. Heck, one can track a convoy with them better than hydrophones if desired.
I tried raising the minimum height on the rwrs to only pick up aircraft but that didn't work out.
They also unfortunately do not differentiate the historical different allied radar wavelengths.
