I have had no trouble evading radar in GWX2.1 if I pay attention to time compression, especially in heavily are patrolled areas.

This confuses me. When a signal is detected I am automatically reduced to 8x TC, which I promptly reduce to 1x. Nonetheless, although ships seem to be able to sail past me without detecting me, aircraft always seem to head towards me, not just to my position but on an intercept course. This has caused me to believe that an unmodeled land-based radar station is directing them towards me.
