The surface radar picks nothing if my heading is >90 or <270. And if my heading is >270 or <90 it seems to work. So I have to always turn to North to detect targets. This is with Gato and normal SJ radar.

If you test that out quite rigorously with a Mission Editor(ed) pursuit, I would suspect you are correct about it being a specific bearing bug. It wouldn't be the first to be discovered for that sort of "bearing bug approach". Here's a thread in which
heartc describes a problem with the auto TDC as related to whether the target is approaching from ownship starboard or ownship port. And he was on top of a new bug, pretty clever. On the bottom of the first page of that thread, elanaiba (an SH4 developer) confirms that for heartc, saying "It gets locked for port side targets... not for starboard side. Bug found..."
So I say test it out once more and plug it into sh4bugs.c o m into the Bugzilla there!
