If you have trouble with VT100PC, alternative LINK emulations are available for you to try. You should also try to adjust the settings of your own software. Test each combination using the test pattern from step 6 above. My software uses VT102 or TTY, but not VT100 or ANSI . Try using your VT102 setting with one of LINK's VT100 emulations, or try using your TTY setting with LINK's ANSI emulation.

Freeware and shareware programs are rarely as good as commercial packages.
