The radios, RCs, and OIs are the originals for their robots (IE, yes the 2006 RC and OI are paired with the 2006 Radios).

Older OIs (2004 and earlier) need the "practice" pin on the competition port connected to ground in order to enable the alternate radio channels.

Well, I can't tell for sure, but I do know that the robots (2005 and 2006) do work independently from each other, either of them also can work at the same time as the 2007 robot, however they cannot work with each other (2005 and 2006 both running at the same time).
I was never sure if the channel ever changed seeing as the C# on the OI stayed the same.
I will have to try the leftmost team number switch as I don't believe they are set that high.
Thanks for the advice!
