I have been using the Kermit on the QE/1280 and the versaterm software on
the powerPC using a serial line with only 3 pins. I had to lower the baud
rate on the powerPC to 9600. Try lowering the baud rate first. Since you
had a working file transfer protocol, the change you need now for powerPC
must be very simple.
