#163092 - waveforms look OK
Responding to: ???'s previous message
so we know that at THAT POINT it IS OK.

This leaves us with a broken cable or broken serial port in PC.

Replace both at least temporarily.

I once almost went nuts trying to debug a serial communication with a cable with broken ground. Whenever I checked the continuity of the cable, it was OK, as removing it from the connector meant to releave a critical bend.
