Werner, If I recall correctly from my modem days -- The naming of RXD and TXD is correct for the K3 (it is incorrect for the K2) A DCE device (computer port for example) transmits on TXD and receives on RXD A DTE device (like the K3 or other terminal device) transmits on RXD and recieves from TXD. Yes, it is confusing, but the standard goes back *much* earlier than either the K2 or the K3.
