I'm trying to upload all my old ATARI 800 disk files to my AMIGA. I have an ATARI XM301 (300 BAUD) Modem on the ATARI side, and an AVATEX 1200 (at 300 BAUD) on the AMIGA side. Using EXPRESS 2.1 software on the ATARI and TERM PLUS 2.1 on the AMIGA, if I initiate the call from the AMIGA, the ATARI acknowledges and sends a message that appears on the AMIGA screen. I can type messages on the AMIGA that appear on the ATARI's screen. But as soon as I try to transmit a file from the ATARI side with the AMIGA in receive mode, the ATARI hangs up. If I try to initiate the call from the ATARI with the AMIGA in answer mode, the AMIGA won't answer or acknowledge the call. I'm fluent in 6502 Assembler and CIO, and I know the AMIGA side less well, but progressing (I've got one running 68000 assembler program, and I can handle building structures in assembler or BASIC). Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks. Stephen MacKenzie, MD – 72337,1031
