Judging from the software you're using and the responses, you probably need
to find a handler for the modem which will list it as "R:" and have at least
a limited ability to respond to XIO commands to the "R:" device properly.
The handler should be loaded before you load Kermit (probably a better idea
to use kermitnr.com.  It doesn't try to load a handler which you already
installed.), or the handler could be prepended to the kermit prog.  (I haven't
actually tried this, so there may be other factors involved, but that's 
basically the theory).  As for Amodem, try a higher version, like 7.x, which 
has a handler for MMP modems.  That should be available on Atari BBS's (has
been for quite a while).
