Peter,
Make sure your emulator is sending the same ASCII sequence your term type is expecting. Even if you change your terminfo's, and use TERM/PTERM/etc. to use ASCII 8 (backspace), your emulator may still be sending DEL (which often shows up as ^? when it's not interpreted and trapped by UV as the "backspace" key). See if your emulator allows you to set what ASCII sequence it sends when you hit the backspace key on your PC keyboard....

Peter,
Hola -
I've got a request from my programmer to set the delete key to act as the backspace key does inside UniVerse
Check out the TERM command. TERM ,,,,,nn where nn is the ASCII number of the key to use for back space.
E.g.
TERM ,,,,,65 will make a capital A act as back space.
