Very cool ... until the cable fails and NEITHER radio is connected to
TR-Log.

Sure, the chances of this are low, but one of the great features of SO2R is
the redundancy, so why purposely insert a single failure point that could
disconnect BOTH rigs from TR-Log?  In any case, there are more important
things for Tree to fix, in my view.  Like making LASTCQFREQUENCY put TR-Log
in CQ state rather than S&P.  Or, making Alt-D setup work from the band map
of the other radio when auto-CQing on the first radio.
