Jim,
You may be having a problem with the UART on the serial card working with
5 bit Baudot codes. I believe the ST-8000 uses the Dumb Terminal
selection in Writelog. Many of the newer PCI and some ISA cards do not
support 5 bits.
To verify it, set the ST-8000 up on com1 or 2 and rig on com 3. It should
work that way. Most computer comports still support 5 bits.
I have been working with another Ham trying to get the PCI-400 Byterunner
board to work in Dumb Terminal mode but no success. The UART does support
5 bits but the board does not .
