The "Waffle Iron" can be lowered by pressing Shift+R. The RDF loop is always extended; that's if I read the GWX manual correctly.

I really would like the loopy cirular metal thingy to be out of sight and give me a clean view of the horizon. the waffle iron thing doesn't bother me so much but I had no idea that shift R would raise or lower anything. So if anyone knows of a GWX 2.1 mod to lower the circular metal hoop thingamajiggy then I would appreciate it.

This rotating thing is not a radar, nor a gun sight.... Is the RDF detector (radio Finder Location) and allow pick radio emisions and get a bearing in theory, (in the real life, i don´t know in sh3)

I love it because it gives a lot of atmosphere to the game and i supose that dev team planned to do it but finally was an unfinished feature.

good work GWX !!!

Well I hate the damn thing and fortunately for us haters you can download a mod to get rid of it.

It was originally written for GWX 1.03 but it works fine in 2.0
