	I am trying to move data from an HP-110 to my MacII and I'm having
some problems that I'd appreciate net help on.  I'm trying to move ascii text
files by printing them (alpha only) through the 110's serial port to a mac
terminal emulator (I have Macterminal and FreeTerm) on the other side.  I can
move characters over, but even with identical datacomm set-ups on both machines
I get only garbage on the Mac side.

	The set-up:
	1200 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, no XON/XOFF
	110 config print to serial port, alpha only.
	Null modem added to modem cable, 110 serial port to Mac modem port

	I get the right number of characters over, but not (at all) the 
	correct characters.  It looks as if I'm sending only 7 bits of an
	8-bit character (?).  Has anyone seen/done this before?
	What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

John Repko
