The reason is because only one option button may contain a value of '1' at
any time.  You can overcome this by grouping them in separate areas. 
Therefore each will have a value of 1 in its own area.

You may not be setting them to 1 to start with.  Try clicking on any one and 
click on anpther.  It should now change.  Each sub-frame will have its
own perception of which option is set.
