- Using Ymodem-G I get first block crc errors often, under any load conditions.
- Similar sort of setup but com port running at 38.4 kbps. If the transfer
- gets past the first block it will complete 99/100+ independent of file size.
-
- Getting past the first block is about a four of five shot.

- I have basically given up trying to do other things during downloads.
