Thanks to those who have responded to me via email or here on notes.

The answer was that, as was properly identified by the responders, the
UNIX kermit was set in ascii mode via:
   kermit -l /dev/tty09 -s <filename>
instead I should have used the binary mode;
   kermit -l /dev/tty09 -i -s <filename>
This prevents the infamous CR/LF translations in UNIX.

I am now the happy owner of a transfer system for my 48SX and can
hopefully do some useful work with it.
