This appears to be a "common" problem with SIMCGA. If you type SETMONO
(which will _not_ echo) you'll be able to see what you are doing again.
For our (rather naive) users, I set up a batch file for the few CGA programs
they run:

SETCGA
program
SETMONO

The really weird thing is that on some machines the display _doesn't_
disappear.
