How are RWR's modelled in the game?

The german RWR devices were designed to receive the radio signals from a specific frequency and band.

For example the Metox could only detect a radar that operated with a wave length of 1,5m (f.e. ASV MK I).

Does the game model different radar wave lengths or different radar devices on the ASW planes and ships and their effects? Or is every RWR effectively the same?
Would I still get my warnings with a Metox in 1944 although the allies only use the centimetre radar?

The game models this quite accuratley. If you find yourself not getting reports, it's time to upgrade.

The game reflects scientific improvements historically accurately

Well, then i will spend my hard earned renown in a new Naxos rather than a T5.

Thanks for the info.
