+## Companion tempradio2 transmit settings
+
+LoRa Companion results for 1.17.1.6 and newer include **Companion tempradio2:
+transmit on both** under **Restore your settings after flashing**. After
+configuring `tempradio2` in `rxtx` mode, choose **Transmit on both** to copy:
+
+```text
+set radio2.cross on
+```
+
+This copies new messages to both `radio` and `tempradio2`. The setting is saved,
+outlasts the temporary session and reboot, and also allows OTA traffic to cross
+profiles. **Default isolation** copies `set radio2.cross auto`; **Check** shows
+the temporary profile, crossing policy and per-profile transmit counters.
+See the [two-profile setup guide](radio_profiles.md#companion-messages-on-both-profiles).

+## Companion messages on both profiles
+
+To send ordinary Companion messages on both `radio` and an active `tempradio2`,
+configure the temporary profile in `rxtx` mode and enable crossing:
+
+```text
+set radio2.cross on
+get tempradio2
+get radio2.cross
+get radio2.status
+```
+
+`rxtx` permits transmission on the second profile; `radio2.cross on` copies new
+messages between the two profiles. `TX=a,b` reports primary and secondary
+transmit counts. Crossing also applies to OTA traffic.
+
+The crossing setting is saved and remains enabled after the temporary session
+ends or the node reboots. Run `set radio2.cross auto` to restore the default
+isolation between permanent and temporary profiles. The firmware picker's
+Companion tempradio2 instructions include both choices and the status commands.
