[1000mp] Diversity reception using the FT-1000MP

The procedure Anders describes -- simultaneously depressing Lock while
rotating the main VFO -- causes the sub VFO to track on my MarkV. I
checked the CAT command set to see if there might be a way to place the
radio into this tracking mode via PC directives, but it appears unlikely
from the documentation. I will experiment...

Pressing lock buttan (and not releasing it) and at the same turning the
main VFO will tune both receivers. It is hard doing that for a long
time, but lock button has to be pressed while tuning the main VFO, in
order for the sub receiver to track.
