You can use ADT v1.22 to transfer 5.25" .dsk disk images from PC to your Apple II. ADT consists of a PC part and an Apple II part (which you can transfer to the Apple II without having a telecom program). Directions are included in the Adt122.zip file. You can find ADT v1.22 on USA2WUG at http://www.grin.net/~cturley/USA2WUG/Utilities/ . For more info about ADT, see http://home.swbell.net/rubywand/Csa2T1TCOM.html#003 . Ground maintains a good collection of utility disk images at ftp://ground.ecn.uiowa.edu/apple2/useful.stuff/Disks/ and each is described in a Text file. One of these disks will let you run a telecom program named "ZLink". Another image, named "PDTCOM.dsk", has a basic telecom program along with several good telecom-related utilities. So, the idea is to get ADT going in order to get disks with programs that let you do more general NULL modem transfers. ADT transfers only disk images. A program like ZLink can 'talk' with Hyperterm on the PC and transfer all kinds of files. The big advantage of the more general NULL modem connection is that you can transfer .shk and .sdk ShrinkIt files. (For info on ShrinkIt, see http://home.swbell.net/rubywand/Csa2FLUTILS.html#002 .)
