An Update: I have a USB/Serial adapter, A null modem, and a 9 to 25 pin converter.
I see I mentioned those already... I am able to interact with a shell on my desktop machine from a telecom session on the PC-8300. Even though I have all these I can't seem to get sx / rx (linux xmodem commands) to interact with the xmodem of upload or download in telecom. Thanks for the pointers on Laddiecom, bkw, and the Model T Serial cable. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ronald Hudson.
