I recently picked up an Apple Modem 1200 for use with my unenhanced Apple //e.
The comm program I am using right now is "talk is cheap."  I have found that
the best terminal emulation to use with my unix system is soroc.  Anyway,
I have found that whatever emulation I use, very often the third or forth
characters are missing in the display.  What could be causing this?  Could it
be a probelm with the software?  The Modem?  The SSC?  A friend suggested 
that the problem is that I have an unenhanced //e and upgrading would cure
the problem, but I don't want to spend $70 to upgrade unless that REALLY
is the problem.


Thanks in advance.
