         Thank you Larry!  My Sweep had been acting up intermittently
(not a complete system lockup) on a Beta and MASTER RESET completely
cleared the problem.  When 1.368 is released, Ten-Tec should probably
suggest a MASTER RESET for everyone.  For any who have never done
this, it is described on pages 47-48 of the new manual.  Caution,
even if you answer "NO" to "Clear User Settings?", you will have to
re-enter Menu settings that are not Defaults.  "NO" retains the
200 memories and band-stacking settings, but it resets Menu settings
to Defaults.  On my wish list is a way to retain these settings when
doing a MASTER RESET.  For now, I suggest everyone make a note of
any customized Menu settings before doing MASTER RESET, unless the
CPU between your ears knows them!
