Re: Making DSKs with ADT

["D. Snyder" <dsnyder66@enter.net>]

Thanks everyone. When I got the IIe 6 years ago, the SSC was in port 3. I've
now moved it to 2. I was able to set the speed on the SSC to 300 baud.
However, when I use HyperTerm to send the adt.dmp file, nothing happens. I'm
sending it as a text file. I've changed all the switches on the card to what
the ADT text file suggested. Any ideas? Should I use something other than
HyperTerm (the one that comes with Win98 Second Edition). Thanks again
