I have a need to access both serial ports at the same time while sending and receiving data over the air. The gpsNmea.py example shows connecting one UART to stdio and that works just fine, but how do I access the other? Are there HOOKS to deal with each port individually?

Not supported.

It was our thinking that the ports would always be used for completely different purposes. For example, we do support running one serial port in Packet Serial mode, and the other in Data Mode. Or one in SNAPpy mode, and one in something else.

We do not support running two of the same thing: you cannot have two ports talking Packet Serial, or two talking SNAPpy.
