Anyone know how to switch vhf radios 1 and 2 in the Beechcraft King Air 350? I can set 2 but can not make it the primary or switch set freq. to radio 1.

What is it you're trying to do ?
If you mean listen to Com2, you select it on the audio panel.
If you mean transmit (interact with ATC via the menu), you can only do that on Com1.
If you mean having Nav2 linked to the HSI's CDI/Glideslope, it can't be done.

Maybe Boshar hasn't identified the rocker switch that enables you to make the newly dialed frequency the working frequency.
Bosh that's the switch underneath, but in the same unit as the VOR or VHF with an arrow on each end of a line. This rocker switches between the two frequencies, but the one at the top left is the working frequency.

The default KingAir doesn't have standby/active 'flip-flop' radios

Ok so that's a technicality or a TKO! I'll have to fess up, I let ATC tune them for me.
