System: A3000 under 2.0
Software: VLTjr 5.034, XPRKermit 1.5 talking to DecStation 3100

Problem: Can't download binary files with kermit.  yes, I have both the 
DecStation kermit and my kermit set to deal with binary files.  Yes, they're
both set to the same packet length.  yes, they're both set to the same block
check type.  

Likely solutions:
	1) I'm doing something silly.  In this case, I'm sure you all will 
	   waste no time in pointing it out to me.  In this case, I'll
	   just change my ways and the problem will go away.
	2) There is a serious bug with either VLT or XPRKermit.  In this
	   case, I'll just say, "Bump it.  I'm going back to Handshake,
	   where my kermit transfers WORK and I don't have dissappearing
	   characters when using VI.

Have a nice day!
