The CM docs say multiple CM units would interfere 'cause they use same
frequencies. Tests should point out wheter this means all communication
would be disturbed or all CM units respond exactly the same. in the later
case, you could make a program which makes each CM unit 'recognize' messages
that are directed to them only.
Combining CM and MS doesn't have these problems because IR and Radio doesn't
interfere, but of course the units can't exchange messages directly.
