I have tried with "telnet" instead of "tcp" but it
still fails to connect to Hercules. Rather than
try to delve into qemu I thought it would be
easier to switch off telnet in Hercules.

qemu fullscreen is exactly what I'm looking at
for when my eyesight fades and I need bigger
letters. It gives me a 25*80 screen. The next
thing I need is for it to be able to drive MVS,
which is what I will do after PDOS/390.
