"set local-echo off" is not relevant, but "set display quiet" does

What, exactly, are you seeing that you don't want to see?
In any case, one way of doing this is to run Kermit from within another
program (in the simplest case, a batch program) that redirects its
standard output away from the screen. For example:
kermit -f command-file > nul
You can also make that same program put whatever you want on the screen.
