I had the same problem with sz and pt3. Then I tried a newer sz,
3.03 I think. This worked for a file, but the send eventually
failed. I wrote seven and eight when it was suggested my connection
wasn't 8-bit clean. This was dumb, since a file with all values
less than 129 is still an 8-bit binary file is zmodem wants to
treat it that way. Perhaps sending 7-bit files is faster with
Kermit though, since I guess (from people referring to it), Kermit
uses commands to send the 8th bit.
