Someone:
: As long as you are cataloging peculiarities, the HP48 sends packet
: sequence numbers that are larger than 63. One can compensate by doing
: mod63 before verifying. Is this right?

Could it be that the original writer did not account for
"adding 32" to the binary count value? My HP48 transfers files
requiring hundreds of packets, without problem, so we can
credit HP with not implementing a completely non-functional Kermit,
inasmuch as no one has ever reported a file which it could not
transfer (if it fits in memory).
