For a while now, Skyview supports the ATR833 radio and can display its frequencies in the top bar using serial TX/RX.
In my RV-8, I have the ATR833 Radio but also an ATR833 Remote head, is it still possible to display frequencies on the Skyview with this setup ?
ATR833 and Remote use data TX/RX pins that would need to be split to also communicate with Skyview, can this affect the synchronisation of the remote or frequency displaying on Skyview ?

Looking forward to the answer,

You could split the ATR33's transmit line so that you can still see its status in the top bar. But if SkyView is able to set the frequencies using the TUNE COM button function, you'd sacrifice that in order to use their remote head. Fundamentally, a transmit can be connected to multiple receives, but a receive can only be connected to one transmit from another device.
