Capturing serial data

Stampers....
Does anyone have an suggestions on "capturing" a serial data stream
of unknown format (it is RS232), short of an expensive logic analyser?
I am trying to interface to a telemetry radio that "normally" talks
to a PC, but I want to interface a stamp or other micro.

There is a program called "Listen"/"Listen32" by Win-Tech which can be
found here:
[noparse][[/noparse] http://www.win-tech.com/html/monitor.htm ]
and a demo version is available. Essentially it is a Datascope (Serial comm
port data analyzer) which will trap, trace, trap/trace, hpld, delay,
alter/modify, capture, and otherwise manipule the RS-232 data steam on a
PC. Any/all data can be directed to the clipboard for later analysis.
Encoding and decoding of the data (hex-to-bin, octal-to-dec,
binary-to-decimal, etc) can be done on-the-fly for additional ease of use.
It is an extension of the Microsoft Windows Debugger.

This should help.
