  21.  
  22. With what Kermit program?
  23.  
  24. MS-Kermit can use com1 through com4, but effectively can use any com
  25. port because it has the ability to associate any address and IRQ with
  26. any of com1 through com4
  27.  
  28. I think Kermit-95 can use any serial port or modem that windows can
  29. see.
  30.  
  31. The notion that Kermit (presumably MS-Kermit) can only use com1 or
  32. com2 is over 15 years out of date.
