OPEN doesn't always result in any communication. For example, when
no file name is specified on the serial bus, nothing will be sent.
Try OPEN1,8,15 with nothing attached to the serial bus. It will
succeed.
Also, I seem to remember that the KERNAL doesn't do proper error
handling either. Try a SAVE to the 1541 with an existing file name,
without the @: prefix.
