I started a new career in 43' and it seems that everytime i get a radio signal intercept, after a couple of minutes my watch will spot a plane very far away. However I can't tell how far it is because when I click on the show nearest visual contact, my WO says theres no contact. The box saying "aircraft spotted" just repeatedly pops up 3-4 times before my watch takes any notice of it. And by that point, its almost on top of me

Using gwx 2.1
16km atmosphere

thanks in advance

edit: it seems the METOX interferes somehow. Without a radioman on the METOX, the "aircraft spotted" sensor acts perfectly normal.

any ideas?
