According to "U-boats, History, Development and Equipment", the FuMO-391 Lessing used the runddipol antenna atop the schnorchel. Piccy here...

Thanks JS,
I wasn't aware on that. In any case there is more information on the web for RWRs on top of snorkels than radars. And they were not limited to XXIs, but other types of Uboats. It is true that these devices (probably versions of FuMB Athos, Leros and Bali), were used very late in the war (at least on top of snorkels, that is), and most were superceeded by Allied radar developments quickly.
Back to SHII: As a genuine XXI fanboy, my point here about Rowi's Fix is that if he managed to put functionality on a device on top of the snorkel, let it be an RWR, rather than a radar.
