No problem to do this. C0[7:1] forms an address that specifies what the next 
4 bytes represent.
At the moment we only use two addresses so we have plently spare.

For example, when C0 = 0000001x  then the next 4 bytes are the NCO frequency 
for Mercury & Penny
So we could set C0 = 0000010x then the next 4 bytes could be just for Penny.

Alex will not be required for a transverter assuming a 10m IF.

Sorry, my offer only extends to software that runs under Windows ;-)
