I view this as a trivial software design.  You have the
two radios on different addresses and both are set to
transceive. When you swap radios, you swap addresses you
control but you could still listen to both at all times
since they are on the same wire. When in transceive,
they only announce when moved.  You could also turn trans
ceive off since there would be collisions as there is no
"carrier sense" or flow control and interrogations would
have to be done but I see this as no programming problem
at all.  It is a matter of the extra complexity being worth
it to Wayne to do.

I would think it is a potentially very complicated topic.
