   I just need a direct transfer of 8-bit bytes with NO protocol.   
   The Altair's MBL (Multi Boot Loader) is just expecting a stream   
   of bytes to load the BASIC interpreter and doesn't use any protocols.   
   Text transfers won't do it since they add CR, LF and such.   
      
   As I said, Tera Term does it on a PC and I wanted to know   
   if there's a similar program for the Model III.
