G'day Paul,

 PE> Then there is virtually no doubt.  Your modem can't handle the

I thought it was. I know the modem is setup that way. I'll try it all again
when I get some time.

Tried that in the past. Usual result :-(

 PE> because Xmodem will only send one block of 131 bytes in

 PE> advance, whilst Sealink will transfer up to 8*131 bytes in

 PE> advance).  Neither should overrun your modem buffer.



I actually thought of doing that but didn't know what would happen. I'll
try that if I can't get the RTS/CTS stuff setup right. Might try it anyway
just to what happens.
