We have the same version.  The problem:  On some binary files, uploading from
a PC running MS-Kermit 2.27, a binary file will run into problems early on
(sometimes packet 3, sometimes packet 5, sometimes others, but always early).
The local (PC) Kermit times out with ``?Unable to receive acknowledge from
host''; but the host is in fact sending acknowledge packets.  I once ran debug
on the C-Kermit and didn't see anything unuaual (then again, I am not a Kermit
guru...).  I don't know of any tests with other than MS-Kermit 2.27, so it's
conceivable that the problem is on the PC end (but it works over long-distance
lines to BBSes supporting Kermit).

I will provide a debug output if it'll help.
