Good news! radars are working :)
So I spent quite some time in the FMB yesterday and wanted to see if the radar systems really are working. To my delightful surprise they are and are also very easy to deploy. Just place any of the British radar types (the german Wotans are not radars they are x and y-gerät and used for radio direction beams) along the coast of choice. I've only tested the English radar type 1 so far. Place an enemy flight somewhere in the channel and create a flight for yourself. Start the mission and simply wait (it might take a minute or two before contact reports start coming in. As you can see in my example pictures below you can of course use the English radars for the blue side to (since there is no Freya radar in the game yet), simple choose when you deploy them.
