[GreenKeys] Question About Heavy Metal, Version 2.4?

Further to my last message by way of further explaination.

If I am receiving a news feed on the internet, and then go 
to config/code, and change it from baudot to ascii, all of 
a sudden the screen display of the text changes to small 
empty rectangular boxes for each letter. Change it back to 
baudot, and the screen again has a normal display.

This is with version 2.4 - I haven't tried other 
versions...
