Todd did not say what kind of system he is using to transfer to his pc.
On most systems running UNIX, the command to transfer a binary file with
kermit is     

	kermit -si [filename]

The -si means send image (rather than send text).

By the way I transferred the pkarc files from comp.binaries to my pc last 
night and they seem to run fine.  I used uudecode on the Unix Connection
in Dallas and then transferred the .exe file sing xmodem.  In the past I
have transferred uuencoded files to my pc and done the translation on the
pc.  I have C source and executables for uuencode and uudecode.  If anyone
is interested, let me know by e-mail.
