[TenTec] Frozen display on Omni V.9

[Carl Moreschi]

The resets for the V.9 chip were required when people did not follow the
correct procedure to initialize the band register values.  There was a setup
step that was missed by several people at installation.

The display on the Omni V cannot be shut off or on with software.
