Bill,

Every one of my RTTY QSOs here have been made with a pair of
KAM+'s ... never noticed or had a report of skipping ... (poor typing
yes, skipping no). 

Be glad to try and swap setting/etc. here, as that part did seem to
be VERY picky to get both setups going. 

To add to the other great comments posted. I am using 25 pin to
25 pin connections. And one KAM+ (for whatever reason) did have
to be reversed to get them to play the same.

Again ... be glad to try and get you up and going there.
