[Orion] Heresy

I've found 1.372 generally less predictable than 1.371.  I've installed 
1.372 about three times  because I liked the new RF gain control and 
improvements in QSK but every time have returned to 1.371 because of: 
1) lost audio; 2) AGC not change even though the display had, e.g., AGC 
might be on PROG but display shows OFF; 3) NR circuit, like AGC, not 
change state even though the display showed that it had; 4) seems 
noisier than 1.371.

Hope the next firmware update smooths out these glitches.
