Yes they can shift on the fly but they sometimes don't sound like they are happy about it. We are only going to use shift on the fly sparingly (though we have yet to blow one, so what do I know?).

In fact, I have some relatively minor modifications in mind that I think will make them better at shifting on the fly but I am loath to try it unless and until I am convinced that it is a vital feature to have and that the system I have now will eventually quit shifting if we shift on the fly too often. At this point both issues are open questions.
