Wallah.  Good advice.  On a scope, the segment driver line looked
good.  So I fiddled the cable from the 68075 coming in (probably not
the problem) and fiddled the board connectors that sandwich the
driver/display boards together (probably the problem) and all the bad
segments are back in operation.

Still seems strange that the same segment went out on both the Mhz and
Khz halves and no other segments were affected.  Glad to be able to
fix it and glad Ten-Tec made such a serviceable radio!
