PROCOMM requires the host kermit have it's parity reset to function properly.

The consensus on the net was SET PARITY EVEN, but I have had the best luck 
with SET PARITY MARK.

If you are dealing with a binary file, both PROCOMM and the host kermit have
to be told this;

PROCOMM is set via the <ALT> S (setup) command and the host uses a SET FILE
TYPE BINARY command.
