Hi!

I think your problem is here:

>sel1 = -1
>sel2 = -1

Tkinter radiobuttons want to work on Tk variables, not Python ones.

Replacing those lines with:

sel1=IntVar()
sel1.set(-1)
sel2=IntVar()
sel2.set(-1)

makes it work as you'd expect. Why it worked at all in the first place
is a mystery to me.

Regards,
Matt
