annoying radio messages

[danoh]

Playing with GWX, every time I load the game a couple of old radio messages get repeated. For example, on a recent Spring 1941 patrol, every time I would reload I kept getting messages about Axis victories in the dester at Sollum and Fort Capuzo. Additionally, daily radio messages roll in at like 18:36, 19;06 or 19:36 that often have trivial information about bombings or X number of English planes shot down, etc. Now that Barbarossa has started the number of messages is getting annoying.

I appreciate the immersive aspect of the radio messages and know on the long U-Boat voyages news from home was welcome and even incorporated into ship's newspapers, but. . .

1. If I ignore the radio messages is there any renown loss?

2. Is there any way to avoid old messages being repeated when one reloads?

3. Is there any way to have the radio messages not automatically adjust the time compression back to x1?

4. Is there any way to just shut the radio messages off completely, and if so would I miss anything really useful like a convoy report?

Thanks for the input.
