Anyone got a plain ASCII Windows font?

My Altair is configured for 8N1 as is the terminal (a Windows PC). For some
reason when I LIST a BASIC program I see >127 on some characters (mostly
punctuation). Typing in produces the right screen characters.

Maybe there's something else wrong?

Sending 7 bits + parity and receiver expecting 8 bit characters?
