Good news, John!

For the benefit of the rest of us who are trying to interface ASR-33's 
to computers, could you give us a quick summary/recap of what interface 
hardware and software you're using?

I've got a Tripp-Lite model USA-19HS RS-232 to USB interface connected 
to a Telebyte Model 65A 20MA current loop to RS-232 interface and I can 
send characters from my notebook PC to my KSR-33 just fine (except I 
haven't been able to generate Line Feeds yet), but when sending 
characters from the Teletype back to my PC, while some are received 
successfully, others get garbled. The software on the PC that I have 
been using for the interface is the Putty application with 8 data bits, 
2 stop bits and no parity.

Thanks for any suggestions any Greenkeyers may have.

Bob
