   Any station which becomes aware that a mobile station is in distress may
   transmit the distress message in the following cases:

   (a) When the station in distress is not itself in a position to transmit the
   message.

   (b) In the case of mobile stations, when the master or the person in charge

   intervenes believes that further help is necessary.

   (c) In the case of other stations, when directed to do so by the station in
