To add to the frustration, it looks like tip is only sending 5 bit data or
something.

When I type in at<return>  (to check on the modem)
it types <BETA>t<i with accent)

I have done this 1000's of times on the NeXT, without any problems, but
when I do tip here, it gives this sort of gibberish. (it gives it wheter I
use COM1, COM2, or COM3. (COM1&2 are the serial card COM3 is a Practical
Periph 288)

HELP!!!

A six-pack of your favorite beverage to the first person to help me get
tip (and eventually uucp) up & going.

(I will post the name of the recipient, to keep everyone honest)
