[sebhc] PIP

[Mark Garlanger]

Assuming random distribution, you would be looking at 40 locations per 10k
of
code - seems like a lot to keep track of.
It may be even more command since the opcode for that byte
is LDAX   D

It seems like the easiest would be to get some type of modem program that
support X-Modem transfers.
