[Elecraft] Diversity antenna selection oddity

[Brett Howard]

I could have swore it changed it for you before...  Can anyone think of
a time that one would want the two receivers PLL locked and listening to
the same antenna?  

This makes me wonder if I've ever missed that and thought I was doing
diversity but instead I was using two receivers to listen to the same
antenna.

Perhaps this could be an enhancement to go in and out of this...  That
is of course unless there is a reason that I'm missing why one would
want to be in diversity mode yet still have both receivers on the same
antenna port.  Seems like if that was something one would want to do
they could use LINK and then hit A>B twice.  But in diversity it seems
like that should always be used on two antenna inputs.

Thoughts?
