Section 186

if the certificate shows that the ship is wholly exempt from the provisions of the Safety Convention relating to radio, the ship shall be exempt from the provisions of sections 183 and 184; and

if the certificate shows that the ship is not wholly exempt from those provisions of the Safety Convention, the provisions contained in subsections (2) and (3) shall apply to the ship in lieu of the provisions of sections 183 and 184.

A radio surveyor may inspect the ship for the purpose of seeing that the radio installation and the number of qualified operators carried on the ship corresponds substantially with the particulars stated in the certificate.

If upon any such inspection it appears to the radio surveyor that the ship cannot proceed to sea without danger to the passengers or crew owing to the fact that the radio installation or the number of operators does not correspond substantially with those particulars, he shall give to the master notice in writing pointing out the deficiency and also pointing out what, in his opinion, is requisite to remedy the deficiency.
