Nickname Characters?

Whenever I try to use "&" or "+" in the radio nickname, those (and other) characters are removed from the string.
Example: If I type "HF&144" into the nickname entry box, the string condenses to "HF144".
Same way with "222+432" --> "222432"
However, "." and "," and "/" all seem to work. "HF/144" stays OK.
Why is this?

The "&" character triggers an automatic 32db attenuation and the "+" symbol initiates the self destruct feature

I was able to crash my 6500 by writing to the display. I tried W7NGA-SEASIDE (overflow) then edited it to W7NGA-DAN which sent it into an infinite loop alternating between both until it crashed. Also, I noticed that the screen has my call burned in, only obvious when you change the text.
