[TenTec] More on the blue screen of death 2.059

The 2.059 blues:
 
To recap:  After pushing the SUB RX button to VFO B, everything  died.  That 
is the second crash with 2.059. The first happened when I did a  Master Reset 
after loading 2.059 the first time.
 
Reloading 2.059 would not bring the radio back to life.  Neither would  a 
Master Reset or a Ram Reset.    Each time, I had reload to  2.057.  I then 
reloaded 2.059, did a Master Reset and then all seemed well  enough until I turned 
the radio off and turned it back on again  later.  Guess what?  Dead.  Blank 
screen.
 
Again, I loaded 2.057 and got it working then I loaded 2.059, did a Master  
Reset and it worked until I turned the radio off and on again - then it was  
dead.  This has now happened three times in a row.  Enough is  enough. 
 
For the short periods of time I have been able to run 2.059, I have found  
nothing worthy of keeping.  Raspy distorted CW note with the NR turned  on.  
Otherwise, minimal improvement from the NR.  Odd action from  the AGC that now 
seems even hotter than the old one which was way too hot.
 
I am going back to 2.057 until they get this fixed.  1.371 looks  better all 
the time.
