For lack of a better system, I just manually control the rigs. I have dual
computers. monitors, and keyboards side by side, and can alternate pretty
easily.
If I mis-time something, the one 14V 35A power supply serving two 25A rigs
lets me know in a hurry if both rigs try to tx at once at full power -
shuts down.
When the amps are on (not yesterday), a single 220V breaker service to the
shack would trip if both amps drew at same time.
I suppose the honor system is the ultimate control, but don't forget that
if someone actually cheated, it would be easy to monitor their
transmissions and see it on the air.
