 I'm having troubles too. I set kermit to binary and Uniterm 2.0d
(also tried "kermit.prg") and finally remembered to set the net I have
to go through to access my Unix system to binary too.  Get bad chksums
all the time on Qst16d.arc.  Is there more to know?  I run 8N1 and
have no control flow when trying to do binary downloads. Email responses if 
this is too trivial for the net. 
Thanks, Bob Pegram
(pegram@griffin.uvm-gen.uvm.edu - hope that works, I haven't figured out all
these addressing schemes yet. RBPIII.)
