Ok in this case I will keep active COM1 and COM2, but keep in mind that you _can't_ listen to COM1 and COM2 at same time.

Of course, a new GUI dialog (designed by Vivian, thanks to him!) will come with FGCom
In this GUI dialog you have a checkbox "Enable FGCom", if you uncheck then re-check it the whole FGCom subsystem is reinitialized.

It could be a solution, but I admit that for now I don't see how to achieve this.


There still some work before releasing FGCom into next branch like:
- Implement the isInRange() designed to detect if the freq still in range or not and hangup/re-call in case
- Move the content of update() into helper in order to avoid copy/paste
- Clean code (mostly done)

This require only some hours of work, unfortunately I will be away from keyboard for the next week and freeze period comes at the end of the week...
Frustrating isn't it ! :D
