Adding LF to CR 's when monitoring serial port in a Decterm

I am trying to view a text stream received on a serial port by using a
Decterm. I am using 'set host/dte' which seems to work but...
The received text lines are delimited by CR's only so, when displayed
in the Decterm, all characters appear on one line, with each received
line overwriting the next.
What I obviously need to do is force the Decterm to translate received
CR's to CR/LF's so as to get the required display - but how to do it?
I thought it should be simple but I have looked at all the options on
'set host/dte' and 'set term' and can't find anything to do it.

Any info/advice/ideas would be GREATLY appreciated.

BTW I am using an Alpha XP900 running OpenVMS 7.2-1

TIA
