[NTLK] Newbie question about transferring data from one Newt to another...

Fellow Newts,
This seems like it should be simple, but I'm managing to make it
difficult.

I have a MP 120 v2.0 with contacts I want to move to a "new" MP 130
v2.0.

I tried this: selected all contacts on the 120 and beamed to the 130,
after the first contact has been transferred the operation stops and I
get a beam error # 48402. Then after aborting the attempt, the 120
refuses to quit trying the beam (I get the growing star at the top of
the screen), and when I try to turn it off it says something like, "are
you sure you want to interrupt the communication" to which I ok, with no
luck. So I reset the 120.

I also tried using my Newton serial cable to directly connect the two,
but that doesn't work either.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Regards,

Paul Curtis
MP 120/130/2100
