[Coco] Speed question

I set it to run at the standard coco speed with out the poke. When you
do the poke, the speed increases and it depends on a pair of switches
for the speed.

.89		Low speed / switches NA/NA
1.79		High speed / switch off/off
4.167		High speed / switch off/on
12.5		High speed / switch on/off
25		High speed / switch on/on

Not really answering your question but I have a question of my own.  If
you
are running at 12.5mhz and you do the double speed poke does the FPGA
then
run at 25mhz?
