use your #2 radio for flight watch, and maintain a listening watch on

Also, some audio panels support a split mode where each person (left and right seats) can monitor a
different radio. I find trying to talk on one radio and listen to both is too confusing, but my wife has
become comfortable enough to listen for our call sign on the flight following frequency while I go over to
flight watch on the other radio.
