BS2sx RF Link......?

Hello Again everyone,
I am experimenting with an RF module made by Laipac, it works pretty
good. I am able to transmit and receive data from the BS2sx no
problem. So then I built an RS232-TTL converter using a MAX233, it
also works well. Using Scott Edwards Serial Sender program, I am able
to go through the MAX233 to the Transmitter and send text to the
receiver and output to an LCD. To make all that work, as in baud,
inverted or not(fixed that with a 3906)an so on took a fair bit of
playin' around. So, with all that backround, here is my question:
I want to transmit a program from the Parallax editor on my PC to my
BS2sx wirelessly. How do I fool the editor into "finding" a Stamp
and downloading the program, through the Max233 to the Transmitter.
What is the editor looking for. Is the ATN line part the solution?
Obviously I'm using the Serial in/out lines and ground to feed the
MAX233, but the program does not find any stamps, how do I do this???
thanks alot......John
