Radar detector doesn't work during deck awash !

Hi to all,

yesterday I was sailing at deck awash navigation. Depth 7.8 meters, wind 5m/s, night. All fine....

Suddently the WO adviced me the presence of a ship, pretty far... IT WAS A DD!!

Now, I have the radar emission detector installed so I was expecting to be reported about radar emissions. I went to full surfece, and soon I had the report of radar emissions!!

My question is.... is deck awash navigation not allowing the radar detector working properly?? ......it would seem so..... Is there a fix for that??
