I think that getting the other end off 7M1 was what I was saying.  Trying 
to attack the bad data after capture by writing code always seems extremely 
masochistic to me.

The amount of miss-understanding that seems to pervade rs-232 
communications is mind boggling at times.  The tech itself is so old it is 
being forgotten!
