But where can I find one? Where is the best place to look and which year?

I spotted and sank a Huge European Liner south of Japan on my second patrol in 1943. It was part of "convoy" with another smaller liner and 4 DDs. The convoy was trucking a long at a high rate of speed, so I almost didn't make the intercept.

Also, the radar seem to shut itself off all the time, which makes me miss all the contact reports.

The SD radar is what would detect aircraft. This radar type does not have a station and you will only get an announcement of a radar contact and it will only be displayed on the nav screen. SD radar is currently broken in the latest patch so it won't detect anything.
SJ radar is the surface search radar, which will detect shipping. However it is also bugged where it'll only detect objects if your boats course is between 270 (west) 000 (north) and 090 (east). If your boats course is heading south, the radar will fail to pick up anything.
