I'm running SCO Xenix 2.2.1 on an IBM AT (8MHz) with a Hayes 2400 V series modem. I've noticed some pretty poor performance with uucp at 2400 baud, namely about 160 cps. At 1200 I'm getting about 110 cps though. The modem is hung off an IBM 0-12meg card, which has serial and parallel ports on the card. Shouldn't I be getting about 220 cps or so ? This has been the case with every system I talk to, not just one. I have noticed *very* occasional spurts up to about 180 cps, and sometimes down to about 120 cps. I want my 220 cps ....... -- Dean Carpenter ...{bigtex|texbell}!rpp386!bunyip!deano (preferred) ...cs.utexas.edu:ibmchs!auschs!deano.austin.ibm.com!deano (sometimes sporadic)

You have to set your windows to seven instead of three, which is default.
