BIT 3 80 column board problems

I am having some problems with BACKSPACEing on my BIT3 80 column board.
When I hit the Backspace key instead of backspacing it either causes a
terminal lockup or it gives me a tilde and if I hit the backspace key
two more times then it locks up. Hmmm...needless to say...this is 
causing some consternation...
           Anyone out their having experience with BIT3 please tell
me if this is a normal everyday *bug* or one that is unique to my
card. I either need a workaround or need to return it to the vendor.
                                   merci
                                    &
                               joyeaux Noel,

  Over the last few days, my Atari 800 has been acting up.
When I turn it on, about 99% of the time all I get is a screen
full of miscellaneous charaters.  Occaisonally, System Reset will
clear the screen, but very rarely.  This problem occurs with or without
a cartridge in slot A.    Has anyone had the same problem?
