	[Problems with AST Multi-I/O card deleted]


I think I know what your problem is.  Most communications packages assume
that you are using an Apple Super Serial Card (SSC) or compatible, based
on the 6551 ACIA.  The AST Multi-I/O card is 6850 ACIA based, and probably
more along the line of Apples older Communications card.

What you will need to do is review an old Apple Communications manual, and
a 6850 ACIA data sheets.  I can help you with both if need be.
