 I've disabled the diversity combining algorithm for now. HEAD works
 fine now without it - cards that support fast diversity simply leave
 it enabled by default (and the hardware does it) but without the
 software changing the LNA/gain table/diversity bias configuration.
 
 I think the main/alt logic is mis-classifying packets. I'll do some
 further digging and reimplement things before I re-enable it.
