Stuffit Deluxe Script Problem

I'd like to write a stuffit deluxe script to unbinhex then unstuff
all files contained in a folder I'll call "downloads" (to protect
the innocent).

 Here is my attempt:
-----
Write Status To 
Decode BinHex "QUANTUM 80:Communications:downloads:*.hqx"
destination "QUANTUM 80:New Stuff"
quickunstuff "QUANTUM 80:Communications:downloads:*.sit" replace
erase "QUANTUM 80:Communications:downloads:*.hqx"
erase "QUANTUM 80:Communications:downloads:*.sit"
-----

	Now what this unbinhexes the files okay, but writes files with an
extra suffix of ".dhx" added to the file name. (Why this of all 
things?)

	Can anyone help me with this? The support staff said "We'll get
back to you!

  Thanks
  Jim Meiss
