I recently tried to receive a file using DSZ's Ymodem-G with my Practical Peripherals 2400 MNP5 from an USR HST. I have never been able to use Ymodem-G, but this is the first time I tried a transfer using DSZ. I usually use Telix which just says transfer aborted. DSZ gave me "out of synce error: 11 should have been 6". The '11' kept incrementing until the transfer aborted. I'm pretty certain that the problem is in my serial port because I was hit by a surge that fried parts of my expansion bus and most likely my serial port. I would like to know exactly what is damamged in my serial port. In case there isn't anything wrong with my serial port, here is my init string: "ATM1 Q0 V1 X4 M1 E0 \N3 \Q3 \G1 \J0 \V1" It's possible that I may have forgot to list a few settings, but I've had no problems using a locked baud rate of 9600. --Tim -- ** The Mages' Guild :: (301)939-9139 :: 2400MNP5 :: WWIVLink @13124 **

I'm pretty certain that the problem is in my Looks like something happened to blocks 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. Possibly flow control problems at the sending end. If you Want YMODEM-g speed and error recovery too ZMODEM with MobyTurbo(Tm) is a good bet.
