You wrote originally that the reason the tests can't be run twice is “the radio hardware is never released.” This sounds like a problem that can be solved by making sure your test (by way of the code it tests, presumably) releases the hardware properly. Then your tests are also testing "releasing"!

I recommend this course of action because I have had trouble resulting from other people's drivers failing to close/release/reset the hardware properly, or to be unable to be opened twice.
