Thanks Richard,

I went ahead and set the array a little larger than I needed.

Code:
dummy VAR BYTE
Hits VAR BYTE
test8 VAR BYTE[44]
ESP1 VAR BYTE[2]
ESP2 VAR BYTE[2]

Main: 
HSERIN[WAIT ("GET"), str test8\44]      ', WAIT ("GET") and load data
hserout [str test8\44, 13, 13]
arrayread test8, 43, mAIN,[wait ("ESP1="), STR esp1\2]
arrayread test8, 43, mAIN,[wait ("ESP2="), STR esp2\2]
hserout ["ESP1=", STR esp1\2, 13]
hserout ["ESP2=", STR esp2\2, 13]
