Evidently you did not "Return to your local kermit and give a receive
command." The method for doing this depends on what software you are
running on your PC. If it is MS-DOS Kermit, you would type Alt-x and
then at the MS-Kermit> prompt, you would type "receive" and then press
the Enter key. Complete instructions are found in the manual:
