Dennis,

  Your problem with Z-Link lies not with the file, but because you seem
  to have missed a step.  There is a program that is called BLU and it
  is available on the Apple2-L List (Listserv@Brownvm.bitnet).  This
  program will be the key to your problem.  Most of the time, when a
  file ends with a '.bny' or '.bqy', it is either squeezed or a binary
  II file.  BLU will allow you to extract or unsqueeze files of these
  2 types.

  As for the problem with your kermit, try useing the original ProDOS
  disk, it's worked for me, it should work for you.  (The User's disk)
