This is not sloppy or leaky behavior.
The code plug for the radio proper starts at 0x01 in the .RDT file. But
there are other configurations stored in this file that need to be
written into devices on the bus at programming time. The control head
has a separate file, but in playing with MDC stuff last night it became
clear that stuff past the end of the radio code plug proper must be for
e.g. the MDC-600 or MDC-1200 option boards. For MDC-600, most of the
setup seems to be in the radio code plug, but for MDC-1200, I have yet
to find _anything_ it stores there. Instead it's all down around 2053
to 20B5. I'm guessing that during programming, RSS probably spends a
little time talking to the option board to write this stuff, in a
separate (set of) transactions from the one(s) used to write to the
radio proper. Note that the MDC option boards may be under the shield
on the P-board, or in the external options chassis.
