Your example code didn't run for us to easily modify, but here is an idea for reducing or eliminating the iterations. You can pass extra info to the sub in the callback, which will clearly identify which button was pressed. You can make a hash element unique to each radio button if you wanted, like a unique token, and pass that in to the callback.

Here is a simple example. For further help, make a small fully running code snippet for us to play with. Having to flesh out incomplete code examples, for testing, usually results in monks moving on to the next question.

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Tk;

my $mw = MainWindow->new;

my $rb = 'first button';
my $rb1 = $mw->Radiobutton(-text => "Button One",
                            -value => 'button1',
                            -variable => \$rb,
                            -command => [ \&showRB, \$rb, 1, 'man' ])-
+>pack;

my $rb2 = $mw->Radiobutton(-text => "Button Two",
                            -value => 'button2',
                            -variable => \$rb,
                -command => [ \&showRB, \$rb, 2, 'auto' ])->pack;
                            
MainLoop;

sub showRB
{
     #print "Arg list is @_\n";
     #print "@_\n";
     my ($state_ref, $button_num, $type) = @_;
    
     my $state = $$state_ref;
     print "$state $button_num $type\n";
     
     
     $mw->messageBox(-title => 'Status',
                     -type  => 'OK',
                     -message  => "Status is :$state: $type button $bu
+tton_num.");

}
