Willis,

When in Diversity mode, the VFO that is controlling the frequency is VFO A only. There is no need to lock the VFOs in diversity - they are already 'locked' because only one VFO (and synthesizer) is being used. That assures that both the main and sub RX have the same frequency and phase relationship.

I think this is the factor that has confused many. The locking (linking) of the VFOs have nothing to do with diversity mode. LINK is an altogether different "animal".

I think he was talking about removing the feature that locks both VFOs together 
rather than diversity.  The writer said that he did not think it was good to 
lock both VFOs together, but I think is is required for proper diversity 
operation to have both locked.
