Default Strange Antennae

So I am cruising around at periscope depth with my periscopes down, I go to external view and see something churning up quite a wake. I think it's a radio antennae or a radar detector. It looks like a big ice pick sticking out the conning tower. How they heck do I lower this so I don't give myself away?

Go deeper!!!

or STOP cheating with external view.

Is it the other scope? Your sub has an attack scope and an obs scope.

But seriously..... I dont think the radio antennae can be detected. It was add by TDW in one of his mods. not sure which one.

It's not one of the other scopes. I don't usually use external view to keep it "real" but sometimes I like looking at all the pretty scenery.

Anyway, I can't really go deeper because this things sticks up about as high as the obs scope, basically rendering that scope useless if you care about remaining hidden

Anyone know how to lower this thing?

You need to change something in the equipment file. Als TDW is wish to know as well because it looks ugly.
