I need some help with using kermit2.2. 
I have been trying to upload a binary 
progarm to an FTP site with Kermit and 
I have been unable to successfully 
Download the program and run it.  When 
I list the downloaded program I find 
that characters are missing (e.g. 
"sys(2883)" comes back "sys(883)").

I have examined the uploaded file with 
UNIX cat -e command and it shows that 
many random parts of the binary pgm 
have letters changed to something else 
(e.g. "binary file" became, 
"b(nary file").

So I tried sending a text file and 
reading the uploaded file shows many 
letter changes within words 
(not PETSCII to ASCII mismatches)

I have noticed that when I use 
Kermit2.2 to read News it will randomly
change a character or two or fail to 
give a line-feed.

I have, in all cases, set correct file 
types and kept Eight-Bit-Quoting set ON.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,
