Then the suit's com system simply had to catch up to the saber's com 
system.  Any suggestions on how to make it clearer?

That would be rather easy actually. Transmit on a tightbeam to say Nene or 
Sylia. I assume that Nene would be monitoring for any radio transmissions, 
correct? Identify himself, say he has a plan and ask to be let in on a secure 
channel. Will that work?
