A portable communication device (100) includes a radio (102) and RF memory key (104) that allows both RF and baseband signals to be transported over the radio antenna port. A single wire memory device (134) is embedded into RF memory key (104) along with frequency diplexing circuitry (116) to transport single wire bus communications between the radio (102) and RF memory key (104) while RF is passed from the radio (102) to an antenna (150).
