Try toggling switch 2-6 (bank 2, switch 6), and see if that fixes it. I had the same problem many years ago, and this fixed it immediately. Also, this won't fix your problem, but I suggest that you (and anyone else that still uses the archaic Ascii Express or -ANY OTHER- communications program) switch to ProTERM. 2.0 has vt100 emulation plus many others, and a whole smorgasbord (sp?) of file transfer types too (xmodem, ymodem, etc.). -tuu
