by looking at the code, it seemed there was the intention that it could also take effect on the new incarnation, so I don't know if this is a bug then, now that it doesn't take any effect.

But I just think that the best alternative here is to remove these messages from the documentation of both [hradio] and [vradio]. I've been doing an extensive revision of Pd's documentation (that's how I bumped into this), so I think I'll just do this commit and reference to this discussion.

thanks
