Summary: DSZ doesn't work on 7 bit X.25 path.
         While procomm does!


I tried using the DSZ0414 to download from BIX via Tymnet calling from a
PAD in Israel that only allows 7 bit even parity and it didn't work.
The pathnames passed ok but no data packets.
The DSZ software doesn't say how to work on 7 bit paths.

Procomm 2.4.2 , on the other hand performed wonderfully...
Over half a meg of binaries using YMODEM with no error.
