Hi all,

I answer myself, it could be useful for future users...
The Solution Cubed MEMKey (and the Pocket Watch B as well) uses NON-INVERTED
baud mode.
I changed the $43FD into $3FD (for 2400 bauds), and now it's working fine !

Thanks to Dave Andreae from the Technical support at Parallax, Inc..

Enjoy stampin'

Phil.
