What happens if you take your (SJ) radar operator off duty?

I took 'm both (radar and sonar operator) to the damage control party. I was sick of the constant radar reports in friendly waters. Didn't help a thing. They kept reporting. As a result I'd sail without the airwarning radar, only the surfacewarning radar was on my boat. I could switch that thing off. Trade off was, planes could get fairly close before they were detected. Crash diving a lot......
