   Thanks for the advice.  I have already tracked down the original    
   schematics for a null modem cable between an Amiga and A PC.  The only    
   reason for that is to send netmail packages back and forth between the    
   Amiga and my PC which can do binkp.  Either that or I work really hard on    
   getting binkd working on an Amiga, lol
