  ok, im getting a little discouraged.  i have been trying to get the 48sx
kermit to work with our VAX/VMS system, and have found that i can do all of
the 48->VAX transfers i want to, but as soon as i try a VAX->48, i get a
'protocol error' from the VAX.  i tried calling the HP calculator support
number, but the people on the other side had never heard of a 'vax' or a 
'vms' (!); i.e. they were no help.  surely there is somebody out there who
can help me!  by the way, i have tried transfers on our DECstation ultrix
machine, and dont even get THAT far; after ~2 packets, it retries until it
dies.
  i have kermitted many hundreds of megabytes in the last half-decade or so,
and have never seen these types of problems.  the worst part is that i/o is
one of the few reasons i did the 28s->48sx upgrade!

  as usual, much thanx in advance for any help...   -matt
