Subject: Kermit

I assembled a Kermit kit from SIMTEL20, about six weeks ago, for 
installation on a Northstar Horizon.  I used the HEX files, rather 
than build from the source, since I was using a 1200-baud phone line 
and only have two floppy drives.  The files loaded, and the resulting
program executes with only one small problem.  Each character received
by the modem port is results in a capital-D being sent back through the
modem port.  The character appears on the screen as sent, and characters
typed on the keyboard go out the modem port priperly.  I suspect that
the modem port read routine is doing it, but it isn't apparent from the
source.  Has anyone else had this problem?  Has anyone successfully 
installed Kermit on the Northstar?
