First, make sure that you do the "CTRL-A 6B" thing that the ADT docs
say to do. Do you see ANYTHING at all on the screen if you do a PR #2,
even garbage characters? And make sure you're using a DOS 3.3 disk I
don't see any reason to use a prodos disk(and the documention says
"use a dos 3.3 disk") Also check to see if your adaptor is already
null-modemed...if it's not try rewiring or adding an adaptor. Also,
can you connect to another PC using a serial cable? Try it if you
still can't get it to work(you don't need any special software, just
go into DOS and type CTTY AUX at the prompt and load terminal software
on the other computer. You should see a dos prompt on the computer
that has the terminal software running.
