The existance of the USA and the Holy Roman Empire overlap for almost thirty years between 1776 and 1806. Did the two have any diplomatic ties? And what were their opinions on each other?

I think this is a very interesting question. The HRE, a thousand year old institution at the time, having ties with the United States, a young nation at the time and that still exists today. Did they exchange ambassadors? Did the USA think the HRE was just a medieval antiquity?
