James, Have you checked the resistance across the tiny inductors on the KIO2 board? Those inductors are easily damaged when installing, and an open inductor would cause exactly the symptoms you report. RXD and TXD are separate signals, so it is quite possible that TXD is working, but RXD is not - resulting on 'one-way' communications.
