Stock OS9 software has problems with missed interupts. THe hardware solution is
the imfamous IRQHHAK as described by Pete in LIB 10's IRQHAK.TXT.

Others have suggested a diode approach. While it's theory is sound, I've not
seen it work here or elsewhere. Apparently the choice of diode is critical.

Another thought crossed my mind on your dropped chharacter problems. What type
of window are you trying to run sterm in? If it's a Graphic window, then that
may be contributing to your problems. Screen updates on a graphic type window
are too slow to keep up at 2400 baud.

Without the IRQ hack and perhaps on a graphic window, things would look like
heck!
