Try TRSCROSS from (I think) PowerSoft (The SuperUtility people).
It runs on a PC or AT, is fairly reliable and even knows how to do
some simple conversions (TRS-80 BASIC to IBM BASIC it hanbdles 90% 
of the work, ASCII text or SuperSCRIPSIT files it handles 100%)

I have *occasionally* had problems with it reading the wrong sector
off of a TRSDOS 1.3 disk, but if I try again I usually got it ok.
