I'm trying to determine if you can use bluetooth and wired MIC on the same radio "at the same time". In this case "at the same time" would mean that the radio is in a vehicle. One driver may have a bluetooth headset, and a PAO PTT Ring so he can use the radio with a bluetooth headset. Then the vehicle gets parked, and next day another driver uses it who doesn't have a bluetooth headset, so he wants to use the wired Speaker/MIC.

So if there is no paired bluetooth device in the radio's vicinity, it should default to the wired speaker. But when a driver with a bluetooth headset gets close, the headset may pair, and the radio would default to BT. Is this automatic, or do you control it through the screen and buttons, or set something up in CPS?

I'm just trying to get a feel how would it work in real life when you have multiple drivers assigned to a vehicle and some have BT headset, and some don't.
