[Yaesu] DUAL in FT1000MP MK V

[John Peters]

Paul (and others who replied),\
Yes the setting of menu item 7-8 was OFF vice the correct default ON.  I did
not associate "DISABLE VFO" with the problem when I first read the menu
list.

Problem cured.  Thanks to all. Great radio, worked 2 new ones this weekend
in the WPX.  44 more to have them all from KH6.

released the MAIN REC VFO comes back on and the SUB REC VFO off. To find the
offset station working SPLIT requires holding DUAL pressed to listen for the
station working now, when DUAL released the MAIN REC VFO comes back on.

Pressing the SUB REC VFO LED switch turns off the MAIN REC VFO while the SUB
REC VFO is on.
