  22. No, you *don't* need to change the SEND packet size.  That is controlled by
  23. the receiving Kermit.  The only purpose for setting the SEND packet size
  24. is to reduce it below what the receiver asks for (or to specify the size
  25. if the receiving Kermit is so primitive that it doesn't ask).
