I couldn't get past 2400 without hiccups and crashes, even screwed 
the CC3/MPI to a board (saw that in Rainbow I think) but the goofy 
diode hack worked and I seem to recall getting 115k through my 
hacked-up DCM-3 to the Apple // or maybe it was the Compaq suitcase. 
By the time I installed my 6309 & patched up OS/9, the diode hack was 
redundant.

Sure glad Mark & Boisys' program kept me from chopping up another DCM tho ;)

Watching characters scroll by at 300 baud is kinda soothing, if not hynotic :)

Peace!
