Re: adtn.dmp & dos33.dmp question

According to the docs when I last read them, you must format a disk once
the dos33 is transferred.  Then you must reboot.  Then transfer ADT
using the same procedure and it will save.  It really sounds like the
ADT transfer is not saving.  The DOS33 transfer may be formatting a
disk, so you may need to wait for it to complete.  Dunno, I'd have to
see noise vs timing index to determine more.

I am curious as to what baud you are transferring at.  To do the intial
transfer, you need to do it at 300baud so the Apple II can have time to
interpret the keyboard commands being typed in via the null modem
connetion.

Also if you are transferring zips instead of the decompressed ASCII
files, that may be your issue too.  Too many variable to think about...

Just thoughts.

Thankx,
Ed
