Not saying that it was indeed sent to you and you missed it, but reading this, you might want to check out ParaB's "Fewer Radio messages" mod. Maybe you weren't around at the time he came up with it.

What he basicly did was to reduce the max distance for "Contact" messages (those who will inform you of, well, ship contacts and display them on the map, usually flooding both the map and your message board), in cfg/contacts.cfg, so that you might only be informed of contacts that are closer to your position. In theory, I'm thinking you could even reduce this to 1 kilometer (must be >0 km) and thus get no radio contact reports at all anymore, which might arguably be more realistic since subs certainly didn't get almost daily updates on enemy positions iRL. Especially in early to mid war when the USAAF and USN air was not yet all over the Pacific.
