Whelp, there was definitely a baud rate mismatch:  modem didn't throttle down
to 300 or 1200 from 2400 where it powers up (HS & MR are lit). As soon as sterm
boots, TR lights; SD & RD blink when keyboard is hit, but CD never lights.

So I tried booting sterm from xmode /t2 baud=4  with the same results.

Then I tried some null modem sterm xmodem transfers to a  floppy, then the same
file to a ramdisk.  The file was over 100kbytes. A stopwatch showed a savings
of 25% when using the ramdisk!  But I also notice how it is that all the time
computers save me, I spend learning more about computers!
