if im not mistaken... the METOX actually increased your boats surface signature and the chances of being spotted (due to RF frequencies emitted during use). I read in "iron coffins" that it was in use for a very short while and was ordered not to be used any more after late spring in 1943. Im just going off memory here, so if someone else can add some dates or offer any further insight or corrections, fire away.
