Hi Jim,
I was not aware of that. It never made sense to me that Tandy would put slow baud rate chips into the RS-232 paks. Why do I keep hearing from time to time, that 19,200 is the best baud rate that can be gotten from the paks then? Is it how the chip is set up or is the implementation incorrect for the higher speeds like 115200 and 230400?
