You are correct.

Perhaps you did not tell Kermit to echo (set local on).
 
As an aside...you don't have to set Kermit to echo to enter AT commands,
however, one drawback without echo is that you will not be able to see what
you are typing; but the advantage is that after you make the connection
you don't have to tell kermit to turn off echo (set local off).

If nothing works, the only thing that I can say is that you have a bad
copy, so try to get another copy.
