Ahhhh... so we ~did~ accidentally fix that problem 'correctly' back when then, even it was quite by accident... lol

Edit: The above issue with the APR was partially properly identified, but more issues were found. Patch is in the process of being tested now for all the boats that will carry the device. Do not look for it to be on the S-Class, nor the Cachalot, and you will need to have certain conns (the 03 & 04 versions only) before the device will mount, even late in the war.

Part two of this is the operation of the device in FotRSU. If you have radar on, you will generally NOT see the warning line. With the device off, "air targets" will show a "green" line with Moonlight's mod applied, dark grey without it. This give the general direction of the radar beam source. You could then turn on the SD / ST and get a precise distance / course, and you will usually find that they are beelining for your position. One thing to remember about a radar detector is that not all planes had radar, and therefore, you can still be "surprised" by quite a few of the Japanese Rostered planes if you don't do regular sweeps.

As for the surface radar, the SJ also interferes with the APR. If you turn the SJ off, you will still see the "hit" on a radar target, just like the SJ sweep is still going, but instead of "holding" as it does with the SJ, it fades away much quicker and does not show with each "sweep". Usually speaking, you will not notice the "beam" line, because you are usually in sonar contact with the ship(s) also. In which case, only one sensor at a time will show, and sonar apparently has priority over radar detection. Anyway, give us a few days to test, and we'll turn the patch loose on civil society...
