I've been doing some experimenting with this today, in conjunction with a 
friend.  He has 2 MPs, I have a Mark 5 and a TS-930/PIEXX.  His symptoms 
sound like yours.  With mine, as long as I only hit one ESC after calling 
someone on the second radio, the callsign and the words "Space Bar for [#]M 
QSO" on the second line remain visible, but the rest of the stuff about QSO 
and Mult needs disappears.

If I hit more than 1 ESC, though, the callsign disappears; most times it's 
just one extra, but once it took 2.  I wonder if maybe this is an artifact 
of some code that was put in back when the Alt-D window wasn't cleared each 
time it was invoked.

After I have made the call in the on-deck circle disappear, it is NOT 
really still there.  Hitting the space bar in this state just switches the 
run radio to S&P mode.  This can be really confusing when you're tired.
