Carl!  You ROCK!  I hadn't even considered the MAX232 method. I've been using a
serial to USB cable and a Commodore 1011 RS-232 cart. No worries on root. I
would have done that anyway. Many thanks!

I may just have to break down and try this with the Max232 with a new Pi Zero
W. Nice small package.
